Title Of Article :
Electrophoretic comparison of vitellogenin protein in some fish species in Mogan Lake
Abstract :
This study was carried out between January and May 2013 in Mogan Lake (Ankara - Turkey) which is used as fisheries and recreation area. The Vitellogenin (VTG) protein was investigated by the electrophoretic SDS-Page (Sodium Dodecyl Sulfate Polyacrylamide Gel Electrophoresis) method from the blood plasma of female and male members of Cyprinus carpio, Carassius gibelio, Tinca tinca and Esox lucius species living in the lake and VTG proteins have been compared. In this method, Biometra brand vertical electrophoresis device has been used. During the breeding period, VTG proteins have been determined among male members of C. carpio, T. tinca, and E. lucius. It is taught that our results might be affected by various contaminants found in the lake. According to results of our investigation, it was understood that this method is one of the effective bio-indicators.
