| Abstract | ||
| The current study was done to evaluate the impact of using garlic powder on blood parameters of common carp Cyprinus carpio such as red blood cell (RBC), white blood cell (WBC), hemoglobin concentration (Hb estimation) and the percentage of packed cell volume (PCV). The fish were fed four different levels [(I) 10 gm ∕Kg, (II) 20 gm∕ Kg, (III) 30 gm/Kg, (IIII) 40 gm∕ Kg] of garlic powder, were compared with ones of the control group (0 gm ∕Kg). The results showed a direct increase in blood parameters with increasing of garlic powder levels. WBC and Hb value shows significant differences between control group and all garlic treated groups and also among garlic treated groups except (I) and (II) treatments that resembled the control treatment regarding Hb values. In regard to RBC and PCV values, no significant differences were noted among (II), (III), (IV) treatments but they significantly differed from control treatment. No significant differences between (I) and (II) groups, between the control and (I) groups. | ||
