Abstract

The activity of glycosidases (maltase activity and amylolytic activity) in the intestinal mucosa of juvenile common carp Cyprinus carpio (L.) under a sharp increase in water temperature depends on its physiological state (satiety or starvation). The fish are acclimated to a temperature of 22°С during the summer (young-of-the-year) and winter (yearling) seasons. An increase in water temperature at a rate of 8.0°C/h leads to an increase in amylolytic activity in well-nourished fish, but the maltase activity does not change. Starving for 3 or 10 days changes the response of glycosidase to temperature stress: the maltase activity increases, but amylolytic activity does not change. Short-term starvation does not affect the thermal tolerance of juvenile common carp; i.e., the values of the critical thermal maximum in hungry and well-nourished specimens do not differ.
