Abstract

The objective of the present study was to determine the changes of some serum parameters in common carp (Cyprinus carpio) during 12-weeks-long starvation. Results indicate that in case of totally food restriction an increased mobilization of glycogen and lipids occurs in common carp. Fish replace the lacking energy in a complex way, main processes is the oxidation of body lipids, which constituted the major energy source for starved carp.
