Resumo

Pesquisas em aquicultura mostram que timol e carvacrol são aditivos promissores na dieta de peixes. Neste estudo, foram avaliados os efeitos da combinação timol:carvacrol sobre parâmetros de saúde e o desempenho zootécnico de tambaqui (Colossoma macropomum). Os compostos foram incorporados em cinco concentrações na dieta. Em intervalos de 30 e 60 dias, peixes foram amostrados para avaliação hematológica, bioquímica e imunológica e, após 60 dias, para desempenho zootécnico, carga parasitária e resistência à bacteriose. Após 30 dias, peixes que receberam maiores concentrações de timol:carvacrol apresentaram redução de trombócitos e linfócitos e aumento dos eosinófilos (p ≤ 0,05). Após 60 dias de alimentação, os parâmetros hematológicos foram semelhantes entre todos os grupos. Com relação ao efeito antiparasitário dos compostos, todos os grupos apresentaram alta carga parasitária (infestação monogênica). Quanto à prevenção da bacteriose, foi detectada alta mortalidade em todos os grupos após desafio com Aeromonas jandaei, não havendo maior proteção para os peixes alimentados com timol:carvacrol. Em conclusão, observou-se que os resultados hematológicos corroboram pesquisas em mamíferos, que destacam a ação anti-inflamatória/imunossupressora do timol e do carvacrol. No entanto, o uso desses aditivos para a aquicultura merece ser discutido cautelosamente, pois o custo-benefício dessa suplementação para o produtor não é um consenso.
