Abstract: O pirarucu (Arapaima gigas) é um peixe que pode atingir mais de 2m e 100kg. No entanto, por ser um animal de grande porte, o risco de acidentes é bastante elevado durante o manejo. Logo, anestésicos são essenciais para segurança no trabalho. Nesse contexto, estudou-se a possibilidade do uso da benzocaína aspergida diretamente nas brânquias do pirarucu, para indução à anestesia do peixe pulmonado da Amazônia sem riscos de afogamento. Foram testadas as concentrações de 25, 50 e 75mg L-1 em indivíduos adultos (55… Show more

“…In the laboratory, the fish were anesthetized with benzocaine (Honczaryk & Inoue, 2010) in order to record weight (g) and total length (cm), for later calculation of the length-weight ratio and relative condition factor (Kn) (Le Cren, 1951). After biometrics, the fish were euthanized for parasitological evaluation, with analysis of the body, eyes, mouth, opercula, gills and gastrointestinal tract.…”
