In the present study sodium carbonate peroxyhydrate (2Na2CO3.3H2O2) which is considered as eligible algaecide and fungicide,
was used as an alternative source of oxygen in fish ponds with concentration of 50 and 100 mg/L for 10 days. To approach our
target hematological (RBCs, Hb,PCV, total and differential leukocytic count) together with several serum biochemical parameters
as (glucose ,total proteins ,albumin, globulins, A/G, amino transferases (ALT,AST),urea and creatinine) were estimated. DNA
fragmentation and a mild degree of DNA degradation as shown by DNA smear and a hallmark apoptosis were observed in samples from gills,
brain and liver after 6 days of the experiment. Pathological changes started to appear first in the brain tissue then other organs
(liver and kidney) were also affected after 6 days of the experiment with 100mg/L treated groups indicating the sensitivity of the brain
and the direct effect of hypoxia on this organ. These results suggest the resistance of fish to oxygen depletion in case of using sodium
carbonate peroxyhydrate (OXY-SOS) and the appearance of pathological changes after 6 days of use indicate its efficiency as alternative
oxygen source. Thus, sodium carbonate peroxyhydrate (OXY-SOS) can be used as a stable oxygen releaser and as a suitable alternative to artificial
aeration in fish farms for a period up to 6 days without adverse effect on treated fish.
