Concentration of heavy metals in different tissues (muscle, liver, gonad, skin, kidney) Roach (Rutilus rutilus caspicus) Guilan coasts the Caspian Sea

  The stocks of Caspian roach ( Rutilus rutilus ), an economically important species in the Caspian Sea, is depleting. Annually, millions of fingerlings of these species are produced artificially and restock in the mouth of Qare Soo River in the Southern Caspian Sea, where they exposed to the pesticides coming from rice and orchard farms in the region. The fate of this exposure in hypo-osm...

The Caspian frisian roach (Rutilus frisii kutum), economically a very important fish species in Iran, is propagated in fishponds, reared into the rivers in fingerling size and then harvested from the Caspian Sea in adult stage. We found six monogenean parasites on the Caspian frisian roach including five Dactylogyrus spp. on fingerlings cultured in fishponds and rivers and two Dactylogyrus spp....

the purpose of the present study was to determine the acute toxicity (lc 50 ) of hgcl 2 and cuso 4 in caspian roach ( rutilus caspicus ) and cuso 4 in caspian kutum ( rutilus kutum ). the caspian roach lc 50 values for hgcl 2 at 24, 48, 72, and 96-hrs of exposure, were 0.64, 0.61, 0.42, and 0.28 mg l -1 , respectively, and for cuso 4 were 11.55, 5.08, 2.49, and 1.47 mg l -1 , respectively. the ...

artificial fertilizers and mainly organophosphate herbicide are used by farmers to enhance their crop and control pests. in order to investigate the effects of pretilachlore, fingerlings of caspian roach were exposed to a range of concentrations of toxin close to those of estuary for 96 h. due to movement of these fingerlings in a gradient of salinity from freshwater to brackishwater some physi...

formalin is a common disinfectant and therapeutic agent in fisheries-related activities. considering large variation in susceptibility of different species to formalin toxicity, it is necessary to determine its toxicity and safety margins in different species, separately. therefore, to investigate formalin acute toxicity and safety margins on caspian roach, an experiment was conducted in 1g cas...

the present study has been conducted on caspian roach (rutilus rutilus) so that the impact of different concentrations lead on blood hematological, biochemical, and immunological indicators could be investigated. the roach (rutilus rutilus), used in this study, was 3.3±0.3 g heavy and 4±0.80 cm long in average. the fish were exposed to a low concentration of 10% lc50 and high concentration of 5...

Copper (Cu) and mercury (Hg) enter aquatic ecosystems from different sources threatening health of aquatic organisms such as fish. As such, in this investigation, determinaing, Cu and Hg toxic concentration in Caspian roach (Rutilus rutilus caspicus), was undertaken. Acute toxicity of Cu and Hg were determined in fish specimen under semi-static condition. Caspian roach fry (~ 1 g) were exp...

skeletal deformities are a common problem in fish hatcheries and commercial farms that affect growth, development and survival as well as the market value of the final product. among the nutritional components, phosphorus (p) and calcium (ca) are of special interest as they are directly involved in the development and maintenance of the skeletal system. hence, the present study was carried out ...
