Description:
Seminal plasma has contained organics factors same as proteins and cholesterol. The
information about role and variety of fish seminal plasma and relationship with other factors
especially in common carp is rare. The aim of this study was evaluation of effects of total
protein and cholesterol on physical and biochemical factors of cultural common carp milt in
Khouzestan province. For this study 40 fish have been bought (20 in March and 20 in April)
and examinations of physical and biochemical were tested. Base on the results, total protein
in March and April was 0.29±0.14 and 0.37±0.35 g/dl respectively, cholesterol in March and
April was 9/95±8.83 and 14/12±12.73 mg/dl respectively. The total protein and cholesterol in
April compared to March increased nonsignificantly. The ions of calcium, chloride, sodium
and potassium in April compared to March increased. Based on the results there was
significant and positive correlation between total protein and Albumin, cholesterol and K in
march and significant and negative correlation with Cl but total protein in April had
significant and positive with Cl, P, spermatocrit, cholesterol and Albumin and negative and
significant correlation with weight of fish. Cholesterol in March had significant and positive
with albumin and negative significant correlation with Cl and P but cholesterol in April had
positive significant correlation with spermatocrit, Albumin, P and Cl. According to the data
of this study, total protein, cholesterol, calcium, chloride, sodium, potassium of the Common
carp seminal plasma increased in April compared to March. So because of these factors have
effects on fertility, quality and quantity of common carp sperm So it is possible to adjust the
parameters of protein, cholesterol and minerals of dietary in spawing season increase the
quality of common carp sperm.
