Abstract

Due to the fact that Ganoderma Lucidium mushroom has important biological compounds that lead to the improvement of growth performance and the host's immune system, the purpose of this research was to investigate the effects of using Ganoderma mushroom powder on growth factors, liver enzymes (ALP, ALT and AST) and mucus immune parameters in common carp (Cyprinus carpio). 360 fish with average weight of 10±0/5 g were distributed at 400 liter tanks and fed on with different levels of ganoderma (0, 0/5, 1/5 and 3 g/kg) in diets for 56 days. At the end of experiment, results showed that the highest FW, WG, SGR and CF were measured in fish fed wit 1/5 g which had significant difference with control (P<0/05). FCR significantly had the minimum amount in 1/5 g treatment (P<0/05). ALP, ALT and AST showed the lower level in fish treated with 1/5 g ganoderma powder (P<0/05). The highest soluble protein, IgM and globulin were significantly observed in 1/5 g treatment (P<0/05). It can be concluded that ganoderma powder can improve growth performance and liver enzyme in common carp.
