TL;DR

Findings indicated that the statistically significant decrease in serum potassium level and the detected histopathological alterations in heart and brain tissues specifically could be considered as characteristic biomarkers of barium toxicity in fish.

Integrated Biomarker Assessment of Bifenthrin, Chlorpyrifos and Endosulfan Toxicity in Indigenous Carps (Catla catla and Labeo rohita): Oxidative Stress, Genotoxicity and Nuclear Alterations

Combined exposure to bifenthrin–chlorpyrifos and bifenthrin–endosulfan mixtures induces pronounced oxidative stress and genotoxic damage in C. catla and L. rohita, highlighting the usefulness of antioxidant and DNA damage biomarkers for monitoring pesticide contamination in aquatic environments.

Praziquantel residue profile and integrated biomarker response-based risk assessment for Nile tilapia Oreochromis niloticus.

As aquaculture intensifies, Nile tilapia Oreochromis niloticus is increasingly susceptible to parasitic infections. This study evaluated the safety and physiological effects of praziquantel (PQ) in tilapia. PQ was administered orally at 50 mg/kg (recommended dose) and 125 mg/kg biomass/day (supratherapeutic dose) for 3...

Monitoring Hepatic Biomarker Responses in Caged Oreochromis niloticus Under Chronic Exposure to Micropollutants in the Iguaçu River

Chemical pollution from industrial, agricultural, and urban activities represents a major threat to freshwater ecosystems and aquatic organisms. This study evaluated hepatic biomarker responses in Oreochromis niloticus (Nile tilapia) maintained under chronic environmental exposure to water from the Iguaçu River, one of...

The price of protection: an integrated toxicological and modelling assessment of flubendiamide exposure in Anabas testudineus

It is demonstrated that flubendiamide induces multi-level toxicity in A. testudineus and underscores its ecological risk in aquatic environments and General Unified Threshold models of Survival provided robust predictions of survival dynamics.

One health risk assessment of heavy-metal contamination in Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) from contrasting aquaculture systems in Egypt

In water-scarce Egypt, aquaculture relies on agricultural drainage water, raising health concerns. Water and Nile tilapia were sampled seasonally from four sites (drainage versus Nile freshwater). Lead (Pb), cadmium (Cd), chromium (Cr), and mercury (Hg) were measured in water and fish tissues by ICP-MS and FAAS. Bioacc...

Toxicological Assessment of Polypropylene Microplastics in Male Nile Tilapia ( Oreochromis niloticus ): Growth, Hematological, and Histopathological Insights

Polypropylene microplastics (PP‐MPs) are widely distributed in aquatic environments and may harm fish through ingestion. Despite growing research on microplastic toxicity, very limited study prevails on the pernicious impacts of waterborne PP‐MPs on Nile tilapia. Hence, this study aims to examine the impact of PP‐M...
