FISH in micronucleus test demonstrates aneugenic action of rotenone in a common freshwater fish species, Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus).
Aneuploidies are numerical genetic alterations that lead to changes in the normal number of chromosomes due to abnormal segregation during cell division. This type of alteration can occur spontaneously or as a result of exposure to mutagenic agents. The presence of these agents in the environment has increased concern about potential damage to human health. Rotenone, derived from plants of the ...
متن کاملInvestigations on the ATPase Activities and Cadmium Uptake in Freshwater Fish Oreochromis niloticus Following Exposures to Cadmium in Increased Salinity
Anthropogenic activities can increase the salinity of freshwaters. Thus, freshwater fish Oreochromis niloticus were exposed to Cd (1.0 μg/mL) in increased salinities (0, 2, 4 and 8 ppt) for 0, 1, 3, 7 and 14 days. Following single and combine exposures to salinity and Cd, Na/K-ATPase, Mg-ATPase, Ca-ATPase activities were measured in the gill, kidney and intestine. In general, salinity alone exp...
متن کاملInvasive potential of common carp (Cyprinus carpio) and Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) in American freshwater systems
Nonnative fish introductions disrupt ecosystem processes and can drive native species to local extinction. Two of the most widespread, introduced species are the common carp (Cyprinus carpio) from Eurasia and the Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) from Africa. In North and South America, these introductions stem from aquaculture facilities, as well as historical introductions for recreational...
متن کاملMetabolism of cryptoxanthin in freshwater fish.
In search of other provitamins A, the metabolism of cryptoxanthin was studied in several species of freshwater fish, i.e. Channa gachua, Labeo boga (retinol-rich) and Heteropneustes fossilis (dehydroretinol-rich). The fish were either allowed to starve for 20-25 d to make their intestines free from carotenoids and vitamin A or kept on a vitamin-A-deficient diet for 140-150 d to deplete the init...
متن کاملCadmium and Lead Alter the Antioxidant and Osmoregulation Systems in the Erythrocyte of Fish (Oreochromis niloticus)
The erythrocytes deliver oxygen to all around body cells that make them extremely vital for the metabolism. Metals are transferred through the blood, meaning the erythrocytes face with metals continuously. The present study intended to explore the responses of osmoregulation (Na/K-ATPase, Mg-ATPase, Ca-ATPase) and antioxidant system parameters (CAT, SOD, GPX, GR, GST, tGSH, rGSH, GSSG, GSH/GSSG...
