| Abstract | ||
| Four different concentration (W/V) of aqueous and alcoholic extracts of leaves of henna Lawsonia inermis were used to treat the common carp Cyprinus carpio L. which was externally infected with a crustacean parasite known as the anchor worm Lernaea cyprinacea by dip method in water each for five minutes. The results of the treatment showed an increase in percentage of killed parasites with the increase in the concentration of the extract until a total killing was achieved by using 40% of both extracts. In connection with the effect of different concentrations of these extracts on the behavior of treated fishes, the behavior was normal in all treated cases. The general chemical composition of leaves of L. inermis indicated that they contained glycosides, flavonoids, tannins, resins and coumarins. However, these leaves did not contain both alkaloids and saponins and the pH was 4.0. | ||
