Application of anesthetic chemicals in aquaculture is important to minimize stress under normal operations such as handling, transport, and artificial breeding. In the past decade, the preference for natural anesthetics over synthetic ones has increased due to welfare issues regarding fish welfare and food safety. This study investigates the anesthetic efficacy of nutmeg oil () in three freshwater fish species- (Common carp), (Danube sturgeon), and (Rainbow trout)-by modeling behavioral (Induction and recovery times) and hematological responses using artificial neural networks (ANNs).

The experiment was conducted under controlled greenhouse conditions using a sterile perlite medium.

Traditional road safety structures are generally manufactured using steel, concrete and polymer materials. However, manufacturing processes with these materials are high-cost, limited in terms of design flexibility and can lead to material waste.
