The aim of the present study was to investigate the content of organochlorine pesticides (OCPs) and polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) in muscle tissues of fish, i.e. carp (Cyprinus carpio, L.), bream (Abramis brama, L.) and pike perch (Stizostedion lucioperca, L.) from the middle Nové Mlýny reservoir and compare our results with previous corresponding studies. Samples were analysed by gas chroma...

increasing industrial activities lead to entrance of different pollutants into the environment, especially water resources. because of their persistency and non-biodegradation, metals can pose a threat to health of human and other organisms. sediment, fish (lucioperca stizostedion and cyprinus carpio), and common reed (phragmites australis) samples were collected from sattarkhan dam for investi...

Total fatty acid composition of muscle lipids in some fish species (Cyprinus carpio (Işıklı Dam Lake), Tinca tinca (Işıklı Dam Lake), Scardinius erythrophthalmus (Işıklı Dam Lake), Cyprinus carpio (Karacaören Dam Lake), and Carassius carassius (Karacaören Dam Lake)) was determined by gas chromatography. Polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) of Cyprinus carpio (Işıklı Dam Lake) were found higher t...

This work has been developed to examine the level of non-dioxin-like (ndl) PCBs (28, 52, 101, 138, 153 and 180) in (a) ten different freshwater fish species from the Danube river, (b) two sampling points: up and downstream of the industrial zone of the city of Pancevo (ecological hot spot in Serbia) and (c) two time points i.e., in 2001 and 2006. Obtained results would serve to analyse spatial,...

Abstract The aim of this research is to compare the average individual weight four most important fish species in fisheries ( Cyprinus carpio, Silurus glanis, Esox lucius and Sander lucioperca ), caught by angling different parts Sava River catchment Croatia. Significant differences were expressed between counties along catchment, with smallest specimens (p˂0.05) Vukovar-Sirmium county. Artisan...

Thelohanellus nikolskii infection of the common carp (Cyprinus carpio L.) has been a common parasitosis in the Central European fish farms since the first detection of the parasite about 20 years ago. This parasite, introduced from the Far East, causes intensive infection on the fins of fingerlings of the carp subspecies cultured in Europe (European carp, Cyprinus carpio carpio). This infection...

Besides traditional methods based on morphological characters, electrophoretic such as SDS-PAGE are preferred by taxonomists to make the right decision in species identification process. In addition, effect of environmental factors, pH, salinity, heat, and temperature protein profiles essential various studies. this study, we aimed determine degree relationship some fish species, Squalius lepid...

Fingerlings of fishes are very sensitive to a wide variety of toxicants in water and effects of metals. The toxicity of pollutants can be assessed by the extent of histopathological damage to the concentration of the pollutant. In the present study an attempt is made to the impact of aquatic and industrial effluent. Histological analysis of gill and liver revealed the significant morphological ...

The objective of this study was to determine the distribution of selected metal concentrations (Cd, Pb, Cr and Fe) in the muscles of five fish species (Sander lucioperca, Liza auratus, Alosa caspia, Cyprinus carpio and Liza saliens) from Gorgan Bay the south-eastern Caspian Sea, in order to assess health risk to the human via fish consumption by graphite furnace atomic absorption spectrophotome...
