This review summarizes the present knowledge on the toxicity of copper and copper
nanoparticles (CuNPs) to various fish species. In previous decades, the excessive usage of …

The mechanisms of acute copper and silver toxicity in freshwater organisms appear similar.
Both result in inhibition of branchial sodium (and chloride) uptake initiating a cascade of …

The present study was designed to compare the responses in freshwater fish Oreochromis
niloticus exposed to a synthetic pyrethroid, cypermethrin (CYP); an essential metal, copper …

Nile tilapia, Oreochromis niloticus, of both sexes were reared in freshwater and exposed to
0.5, 1.0 and 2.5 mg L-1 of waterborne copper for a period of 21 days. Liver and gill samples …

Among species, various strategies in metal handling can occur. Moreover, the same metal
concentration, or even the same metal dose, does not always seem to exert the same effect …

The main objective of this study was to determine the effects of copper exposure on copper
accumulated in branchial tissue, gill Na+/K+-ATPase activity and plasma Na+, Cl …

Pesticide toxicities are common in aquatic ecosystems and affects aquatic livings negative.
Therefore, it is important to strengthen the antioxidant system in aquatic organisms and to …

The individual toxicity and bioaccumulation of cadmium, copper and zinc for common carp
juveniles was evaluated in a direct comparison in two experimental setups. First, fish were …

In the present review, we synthesize information on the mechanisms of chronic copper (Cu)
toxicity using an adverse outcome pathway framework and identify three primary pathways …

Isogenic carp Cyprinus carpio L. were acclimated to water temperatures of 15, 22 and 29° C
for at least 8 weeks. The acclimations consistently resulted in slightly, but significantly …
