Tilapia oreochromis

Anesthetics. Ethyl amiaobenzoate [94-09-7] (benzocaiae), C2H22NO2, is the only anesthetic candidate that might allow spawned-out broodstock carcasses to be used for pet or human food. Studies are still required to determine which residues remain ia the carcasses (9). Electronarcosis is an alternative to chemical anesthesia that uses varying electrical frequencies to rapidly anesthetize fishes and allow gentie recovery. Electronarcosis has been used effectively on tilapia (Oreochromis sp.) and the common carp Cyprinus carpid) and the technique is being tested with other fishes (23,24).
