Impact of differential quantity of iron oxide nanoparticles incorporated feed on growth, biochemical and haematological characteristics of Mrigal Cirrhinus mrigala

The present study deals with the impact of differential quantity of iron oxide nanoparticles incorporated feed on the growth, biochemical and haematological characteristics of Mrigal. Iron oxide nanoparticles were synthesised and characterized by using 5 UV-Vis spectroscopy(UV-Vis ) , Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), Energy Dispersive X-Ray Spectroscopy (EDAX), X-Ray Diffraction (XRD), Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FT-IR) andVibrating Sample Magnetometer (VSM). Six experimental feeds were prepared by using a fish meal, groundnut oil cake, wheat flour, tapioca flour and differential quantities of iron oxide nanoparticles such as 0, 10, 20, 30, 40, and 50 mg/100g. Feed utilization, biochemical and haematological characteristics of Mrigal were estimated after 21 days. UV-VIS Image spectra show that iron oxide nanoparticles were measured at a wavelength of “328 nm”. SEM image shows the morphological formation of iron oxide nanoparticles and was observed at the wavelength of 1μm.EDAX spectrum recorded on the iron oxide nanoparticles is shown as two peaks located between 0.2KeV and 6.4KeV. XRD results were obtained for the crystal nature of iron oxide nanoparticles and the average size is 20 nm. FT-IR spectrum of iron oxide nanoparticles was analyzed in the range from 4000-500 cm-1.VSM results revealed that saturation magnetization (MS) is 1.019 emu/gm present in iron oxide nanoparticles. The feed consumption, feed conversion efficiency, growth, and relative growth rate of Mrigal were higher in Ex. Feed III. The gross and net growth efficiency of Mrigal were higher in Ex. Feed I. All the blood parameters were gradually increased from Feed I to VI. The total protein, carbohydrate and lipids of Mrigal’s muscle, gill and liver of Mrigal is higher in Feed VI containing 50mg of iron oxide nanoparticles.
