In this study, ionic parameters and metabolite factors (cholesterol, total protein, and glucose) of serum and their interrelationships were detected in 48 specimens of kutum (
Results indicated that values of Na+, Ca+2, K+, and Mg+2 revealed the highest to the lowest content in blood serum of kutum, respectively. Cholesterol concentration was higher than glucose and the latter was estimated more than total protein. Na+ was positively correlated with Mg+2 (P < 0.01), whereas it shows reversed correlations with glucose (P < 0.01) and pH (P < 0.05). The results deduced in the present trail, might improve reproductive and farming management of this valuable species.
