DIFERENSIAL LEUKOSIT IKAN GURAMI (Osphronemus gouramy Lac.) DENGAN PERBEDAAN LEVEL SUPLEMENTASI Spirulina platensis DALAM PAKAN
Abstrak: The aim of this
research was to know the effect of supplemented Spirulina platensis in diet on
leukocytes differential of gourami (Osphronemous gouramy Lac.) and to obtain
the best dose. This research was carried out experimentally using a completely
randomized design (RAL), which consists of 4 treatments and 3 repetitions. The
fish fed with diets which contain different levels of (0, 2.4, and 6g/kg) Spirulina
platensis were investigated. Sampling was done 4 times at intervals of 2 weeks
of the feeding experiment, leukocyte differential (monocyte, lymphocyte,
neutrophil, eosinophyl) of blood taken from fish were determined. The results
showed that the highest percentage of lymphocytes was found in level of
supplementation of 4 g/kg of diets, whereas the highest percentage of
monocytes, neutrophils and eosinophils were found at the level suplemetation 2
g/kg of diets. Level supplementation of S. platensis 4 g/kg of diets is an
efficient and effective level in stimulating immune system cells of gourami,
particularly lymphocytes cell.
