ABSTRACT
The safety and effectiveness of oxytetracycline can potentially manage bacterial infections in fish. This, in turn, might reduce the concerns related to its use in aquaculture and human consumption, such as toxicity, antimicrobial resistance, and other associated risks. The primary objective of this study was to assess how adding oxytetracycline dihydrate to the diet affects its effectiveness, safety, and the presence of residues in T. putitora. T. putitora fingerlings, subjected to experimental infection with Aeromonas hydrophila at a concentration of 108 CFU mL- 1, received an oral administration of oxytetracycline dihydrate. The oxytetracycline dihydrate was added to the feed (corresponding to 2% of the fish body weight) at concentrations of 44.1, 88.2, 132.3 and 176.4 mg Kg- 1 fish body weight per day. This treatment was carried out for 10 consecutive days. The biochemical and physiological responses of T. putitora and efficacy of oxytetracycline dihydrate were determined through estimation of microbial load (CFU mL- 1), haematogram, serum biomarkers, behavioral characteristics, non-specific immunity and residue depletion. Experimentally infected fish showed disease progression and induced histopathological conditions with highest microbial load (CFU mL- 1) in the muscle of both control and treated fish. The fish haematogram showed increased leucocyte and haemoglobin content, influenced by dietary oxytetracycline dihydrate. The fish demonstrated adaptive physiological response to oxytetracycline dihydrate at 44.1 to 88.2 mg and resulted in increased albumin and globulin content. The serum-enzyme assay showed significant increase in aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and plasma alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activities in the test fish (< 0.05). Oxytetracycline dihydrate at 88.2 to 132.3 mg Kg- 1 fish body weight per day recorded higher feed intake (75%), significant survivability (66-68%) and histopathological recovery. The suppressed immune response was manifested with decreased respiratory burst and lysozyme activity. The palatability, treatment of bacterial infection, histopathological changes and survivability by fingerlings of golden mahseer determined the safety and optimized the therapeutic potential of the oxytetracycline dihydrate at 88.2 mg Kg- 1 fish body weight per day for 10 days to contain the infection by A. hydrophila. A withdrawal period of 8-d was recommended as oxytetracycline dihydrate concentration depleted below the legal maximum residue limit (MRL 2.0 mg g- 1) in the edible muscle of the golden mahseer reared at an average water temperature of 20 °C. This is considered safe for human consumption.
