Background One of the most significant heavy metals that is not biodegradable is mercury. Fish exposed to mercury may experience negative consequences, such as a decrease in brain tissue. Using herbal compounds or their active constituents is one of the best ways to lessen the negative effects of heavy metals. The essential oils of plants like thyme contain thymol, a naturally occurring monoterpene. Objectives This research was conducted to investigate the protective effects of thymol on the brain tissue oxidative stress responses of juvenile carp exposed to mercury metal. Methods The 120 common carp (Cyprinus carpio) used in this study were split into four groups at random: control, HgCl2, thymol, and thymol+HgCl2. Each group had ten fish and was reproduced three times. The fish spent 56 days in captivity. For the control group, the fish were kept in water devoid of mercury (II) chloride and fed simple diet. Thymol and thymol+HgCl2 fish were fed food containing 100 mg/kg of thymol for 56 days. Fish in the thymol+HgCl2 and HgCl2 groups had 0.44 mg/l of mercury chloride in their tank water. A necropsy and removal of the fish's brain tissue followed their euthanasia after 56 days. The brain tissue's response variables to oxidative stress (MDA, TAC, CAT, SOD) were then assessed. Results The results of this research showed that thymol has a good protective effect on oxidative stress responses of brain tissue following chronic mercury exposure. Conclusions Therefore, it can be said that thymol is capable of reducing the negative effects that common carp experience from exposure to mercury chloride. | ||
