Abstract

- Souroubea sympetala extract and betulinic acid reduced ACTH-stimulated cortisol production by head kidney tissue in vitro.
- The cortisol response to an acute stressor was attenuated in rainbow trout fed betulinic acid supplemented food.
- Thus, S. sympetala and betulinic acid may be useful in mitigating effects of stress in aquaculture.
