Abstract:

To investigate the anesthetic effect of eugenol on junvenile Schizothorax chongi and provide theoretical basis for artificial breeding of Schizothorax chongi, we measured the time of anesthesia and recovery under different concentration, different anesthetic time and different exposure time by hydrostatic method. The results showed that a negative correlation between the eugenol concentration and anesthesia time was identified with y1=286.63e-0.0135x, R2=0.9593; a positive correlation between the eugenol concentration and recovery time was found with y2=101.54e0.0134x, R2=0.9913; the anesthetic time and the recovery time differed significantly with different concentration of eugenol (P<0.05); the recovery time was positively correlated with the anesthetic time (y=64.647x0.2394, R2=0.9823) under concentration of eugenol was 40 mg/L; a significant negative correlation between recovery time and exposure time was identified with y=900.92x-0.4078, R2=0.8961. The conclusion of this study was that eugenol concentration of 40-80 mg/L was the best in the production, transportation and sampling; the medicinal bath time of young fish should not exceed 600 s and the exposure time of juveniles were permitted no more than 1200 s.
