Fig 4. PTAT treatment improves the ratio of fish with normal morphology after 24 h chilled storage.

Larval/fish morphology was evaluated on 10 dpf and 30 dpf. (A) Mean values (± SEM) of ratio of morphologically normal larvae/fish per experiments (four repetitions) are presented. Remarkably higher percentage of morphologically normal larvae/fish was detected in the PTAT-treated chilled group, compared to the untreated chilled controls. No viable fish was found in the control chilled groups on 30 dpf. (B) Illustration of morphological abnormalities detected on 10 and 30 dpf.
