Copper Nanoparticles Mitigate the Growth, Immunity, and Oxidation Resistance in Common Carp (Cyprinus carpio)

The present investigation aimed to evaluate the influence of copper nanoparticles (Cu-NPs) on the growth, immunity, and oxidation resistance of common carp (3.02 ± 0.01 g, initial mean weight ± S.E.). Five groups of fish fed diets with Cu-NPs at 0, 0.5, 1, 2, and 4 mg/kg for 8 weeks. The results sug...

Description
Summary:The present investigation aimed to evaluate the influence of copper nanoparticles (Cu-NPs) on the growth, immunity, and oxidation resistance of common carp (3.02 ± 0.01 g, initial mean weight ± S.E.). Five groups of fish fed diets with Cu-NPs at 0, 0.5, 1, 2, and 4 mg/kg for 8 weeks. The results suggested that Cu-NPs in diets increased the growth performance and reduced FCR with linear and quadratic model ( P
