Abstract: (280 Views)
The indirect application of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) in controlling the common fungal infection during the incubation period of Persian sturgeon -saprolegniasis - was investigated in this research. Filters containing 0.2%, 0.5% and 1% of AgNPs in two states without agent and with aminopropyltriethoxysilane (APTES) coupling agent along with the control treatment (without filter) were the treatments investigated in the present study. The results showed that in the first 48 hours of incubation, which corresponds to embryonic growth before the start of neurulation, despite the start of contaminating the water in the incubators with Saprolegnia fungus, fungal infection was not seen in any of the investigated treatments. The results of measuring the amount of silver released from the studied filters at the end of the first 12 hours of incubation showed that the amounts of silver released in the water in the treatments of 1% AgNP filters without APTES and with APTES were significantly higher than other filters containing AgNPs. This trend was repeated at the next sampling rounds (48 and 96 hours) with the difference that the release rate was significantly higher only in the 1% AgNP-APTES filter treatment. In the treatment of AgNP-APTES filters, the percentage of hatching showed a significant increase compared to the control filter treatment.
