Efficacy of cumin (Cuminum cyminum) and lavender (Lavandula angustifolia) essential oils as anaesthesics in common carp (Cyprinus carpio L.1758) was written by Metin, Secil;Yigit, Nalan Ozgur;Balkaya, Melike;Didinen, Behire Isil;Didinen, Hakan;Ozmen, Ozlem.

In this study, anesthetic effects of cumin and lavender essential oils by comparing with clove oil were determined on common carp. Fish (mean weight of 10 g) were exposed to nine concentrations of essential oils (5-500 mg L-1). Anesthesia induction, recovery times and mean LD of essential oils (10 min LC50 concentration) were evaluated sep. for each fish. In addition, histopathol. effects of essential oils on the fish tissues including hepatopancreas, gill and skin were investigated. The results showed that when the dose of essential oils increased, the time to anesthesia induction was shortened and the time to recovery from anesthesia was prolonged. Cumin essential oil at 300 mg L-1 dose and lavender oil at 400 mg L-1 dose on common carp showed similar anesthetic effects (sedative and deep anesthesia) to clove oil (p > .05). At these concentrations, sedative (Stage 2) and deep anesthesia (Stage 4) induction times were 105 and 187.5 s for cumin and 94 and 194 s for lavender resp. Recovery times at these concentrations were 415 s for cumin and 477.5 s for lavender. Mean LD of essential oils for carp were found as 450 mg L-1 for cumin oil and 500 mg L-1 for lavender oil. Histopathol. examination revealed no lesion in gill, skin and hepatopancreas in essential oils group. In the light of these findings, it was determined that lavender and cumin oils can be used as effective and safe anesthetic in common carp. In the experiment, the researchers used many compounds, for example, Oct-1-en-3-ol (cas: 3391-86-4COA of Formula: C8H16O).
Oct-1-en-3-ol (cas: 3391-86-4) belongs to alcohols. Under appropriate conditions, inorganic acids also react with alcohols to form esters. To form these esters, a wide variety of specialized reagents and conditions can be used. Converting an alcohol to an alkene requires removal of the hydroxyl group and a hydrogen atom on the neighbouring carbon atom. Dehydrations are most commonly carried out by warming the alcohol in the presence of a strong dehydrating acid, such as concentrated sulfuric acid.COA of Formula: C8H16O
