Abstract

The present work was conducted to study the effect of garlic (Allium sativum) on glycogen content of fresh water fish Channa striatus. Live specimens of Channa striatus were collected from local market of Amravati city. The controlled fishes were fed with normal diet and experimental fishes were fed with garlic pellets. Fishes were randomly selected from each control and experimental tanks, anesthetized, sacrificed after day 7, 14 and 21days and muscle tissue were taken for glycogen estimation. The glycogen levels in the muscle of the controlled and experimental fishes were estimated by Nelson-somogy’s method. The glycogen level of controlled and experimental was compared. The present investigation indicated that the glycogen contents in muscle of experimental fish decreased 29.07±0.833, 26.18±0.904, 23.78±1.784 as compared to control 30.45± 1.18, 28.73±0.591 and 30.33±0.498. Thus, Allium sativum fed to Channa striatus showed significant decreased in the glycogen level of muscle tissue.
