In order to evaluate the effects of copper and atrazine on the stress response of the
freshwater fish Prochilodus lineatus, juvenile fish were pre-exposed to copper (20μgL− 1) or …

Fish are exposed to multiple stressors, often acting concurrently, in their environment. To
evaluate the potential of Cu to act as a chemical stressor, rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus …

The aim of this study was to determine the effects of chronic waterborne copper (Cu)
exposure on the acute stress-induced cortisol response and associated physiological …

The effects of increased endogenous cortisol levels were compared with those of sublethal
copper exposurein the freshwater common carp, Cyprinus carpio. Fish were exposed to …

Channel catfish and sunshine bass were exposed to a low-water stress event and allowed
to recover in fresh water or a solution of metomidate (dl-1-(1-phenylethyl)-5 …

Exposure of freshwater tilapia to a sublethal cadmium concentration in the water (10 μg Cd/l)
induced a rapid elevation (within 1 h) of plasma cortisol levels. Concentrations remained …

Exposure to agrichemicals can have deleterious effects on fish, such as disruption of the
hypothalamus–pituitary–inter-renal axis (HPI) that could impair the ability of fish to respond …

Background. Copper is a heavy metal, and an aquatic pollutant, known for its bio-
accumulative and non-biodegradable properties. In the aquatic ecosystems, acute and …

Plasma cortisol concentrations in juvenile channel catfish Ictalurus punctatus exposed to 1.7
mg copper sulfate/L for 24 h in a simulated therapeutic treatment episode rose to a level …

Carbamazepine (CBZ) is an anticonvulsant drug, prescribed worldwide for the treatment of
