in this study, length-weight relationship of three populations of fingerling roach (rutilus rutilus caspicus), wild, farmed and mix were investigated with the fish reproduce in the center of the proliferation of bony fish syjeval harber. in order to check the length-weight, 587 sample fish by hand sachook during the release into the sea. minimum and maximum total length of respectively 17.14 (f...

This study was conducted to investigate whether exposure to wastewater treatment works (WWTW) effluent affects the adaptive stress axis of fish resident within the receiving water. Three-spined sticklebacks (Gasterosteus aculeatus) were sampled from sites downstream of ten WWTWs in north-west England, selected to represent a range of human population equivalents between 1000 and 125,000. Follow...

Acute toxicity tests were performed over a period of 120 hours using different concentrations of effluent of treated rubber wood processing wastewater on freshwater fish, Poecilia reticulata. The LC50 values of the effluent exposed to P. reticulata for 24, 48, 72, 96 and 120 hours were 19.77, 19.55, 19.25, 18.99 and 18.75 ml/dl respectively. Mortality was observed in a dose dependant manner. Th...

Rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) were exposed to 1.5 and 15% v/v secondary treated sewage effluent for 32 weeks in flow-through mesocosms. The exposure encompassed the full period of reproductive development for rainbow trout. Trout did not show any evidence of a dose-dependent change in growth. Fish exposed to 15% effluent were the only group to show mortality (5%) over the duration of the ...

We exposed fathead minnows (Pimephales promelas to 7 concentrations of effluents from pulp mills at 4 Long-Term Receiving Water Study (LTRWS) sites. The primary objective of these investigations was to determine the potential for toxicity, particularly on fish reproduction, of the pulp mill effluents using laboratory tests. These tests were performed as LTRWS fish community assessments were bei...

In the breeding process of high quality economy parent fish, the identification and the information storage and management of the parent fish are often through artificial way. This way takes workload too much and is hard to get high reliability. It is difficult to track and manage the breeding process of the parent fish well for us. Based on the RFID (Radio Frequency Identification, RFID) techn...

The erythrocyte abnormality test was analyzed in kidney cells of freshwater fish, Labeo rohita exposed to tannery industry effluent. The 96h LC50 value of tannery effluent against fish was calculated by Finney method and it comes out to be 7.07%. Three sublethal concentrations on basis of 96h LC50 value (3.53%, 1.76% and 0.88%) were selected. Fishes were exposed to these concentrations for 24h,...

in this study, 307 samples of the sediments of fish breeding pools of the different parts of north of iran were tested for the survey of different environmental mycobacteria. after the process of cultivation, 107 cases of mycobacterium were gained which after the performance of different biochemical tests. 112 cases of mycobacterium were identified. from among the isolated mycobacteria, the hig...

Environmental complexity and season both influence brain cell proliferation in adult vertebrates, but their relative importance and interaction have not been directly assessed. We examined brain cell proliferation during both the breeding and non-breeding seasons in adult male electric fish, Brachyhypopomus gauderio, exposed to three environments that differed in complexity: (1) a complex natur...

It has been previously demonstrated that vitellogenin (VTG)--a precursor egg yolk protein--is produced in male fish exposed to estrogenic compounds in wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) effluent. However, little attention has been given to examine whether any patterns of male VTG production exists across fish species on a global scale. We hypothesized that a composite measure of human population...
