Effect of sublethal concentration of metasystox on selected oxidative enzymes, tissue respiration, and hematology of the freshwater air-breathing fish, Channa striatus (Bleeker)
TLDR
Sublethal exposure of metasystox decreased succinic dehydrogen enzyme activity and tissue respiration, while lactic dehydrogenase activity increased in gill, brain, muscle, liver, and kidney tissues of Channa striatus.About:

Effects of 2,4-Diamin on some parameters of protein and carbohydrate metabolisms in the serum, muscle and liver of Cyprinus carpio
Elif Oruç,Nevin Üner +1 more
TL;DR: The acute and chronic effects of 2,4-Diamin, which is a widely used herbicide, were investigated in freshwater fish, Cyprinus carpio (L), for 1, 2, 3, 4, 15, and 30 days as mentioned in this paper.

Effect of anthracene and solar ultraviolet radiation exposure on gill ATPase and selected hematologic measurements m the bluegill sunfish (Lepomis macrochirus)
John T. McCloskey,James T. Oris +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated possible modes of action associated with simultaneous anthracene and SUVR exposure using blood and gill biochemistry in bluegill sunfish (Lepomis macrochirus).

Haematological parameters as bioindicators of insecticide exposure in teleosts
TL;DR: The effects of insecticides on the morphology of red blood cells, total and differential leucocyte counts, thrombocyte count and clotting time in the peripheral blood of a number of teleosts are dealt with.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of repeated exposure of diazinon on cholinesterase activity and growth in snakehead fish (Channa striata).
TL;DR: It is shown not only that diazinon caused long term inhibition of brain ChE activity, which was still significantly depressed at the termination of the experiment, but also that the highest of these realistic concentrations caused a significant 30% growth inhibition.

Selected oxidative enzymes and histopathological changes in the gills of Cyprinus carpio and Oreochromis mossambicus cultured in secondary sewage effluent
Christine Coutinho,K.S Gokhale +1 more
TL;DR: The responses suggest against the use of secondary sewage effluent as a culture medium for these fish and suggest use of aerobic and anerobic pathways in control fish.

Protein Measurement with the Folin Phenol Reagent
TL;DR: Procedures are described for measuring protein in solution or after precipitation with acids or other agents, and for the determination of as little as 0.2 gamma of protein.
Journal ArticleDOI
A colorimetric method for the estimation of succinic dehydrogenase activity.
TL;DR: The observation that some formazans exhibit substantive properties suggested that the addition of a simple protein into the reaction mixture might keep the formazan dispersed finely enough to permit determination of the color density in aqueous solution, and nitro-BT was a much more sensitive histochemical indicator of succinic dehydrogenase activity than its analogue, BT, which lacked the nitro moiety.

Changes in the Blood of Brook Trout (Salvelinus fontinalis) After Short-Term and Long-Term Exposure to Copper
TL;DR: Seven blood characteristics — red blood cell count (RBC), hematocrit (Hc), hemoglobin (Hb), plasma chloride (Cl), plasma glutamic oxalacetic transaminase (PGOT, L-aspartate:2-oxoglutarate amino transferase), osmolarity (Os), and total protein (TP) — were measured in brook trout that had been exposed to three concentrations of Cu(II) for 6 and 21 days.

Respiration in tissues of goldfish adapted to high and low temperatures
TL;DR: Differences in Qo2 of both liver and brain were in the same direction as for intact animals and oxygen consumption of minced brains and sliced livers from cold and warm adapted animals was measured.

Brain acetylcholinesterase inhibition in fish as a diagnosis of environmental poisoning by malathion, O,O-dimethyl S-(1,2-dicarbethoxyethyl) phosphorodithioate☆
TL;DR: The correlation of brain acetylcholinesterase inhibition with exposure and deaths is of value in diagnosing poisoning in fish populations and has been applied to actual environmental situations.
