The present study aimed to evaluate the acute toxicity of endosulfan (99% purity; α:β ratio of 7:3) in milkfish (
Chanos chanos
) under freshwater acclimated conditions over a 96-hour exposure period. Milkfish (
C. chanos
) is a commercially important tropical species widely cultured across freshwater, bracki...

— Fishes are one of the most important food resources and are considered as sources of the primary protein worldwide. Ongoing freshwater pollution increases the concentration of toxic metals in water and negatively affects fish health. These pollutants, which have a negative effect on fish, are released by agriculture,...

Marine bivalves face combined stress from cadmium (Cd) pollution and salinity fluctuations. This study assessed salinity-dependent Cd bioaccumulation and toxicity in Mactra veneriformis exposed to five salinities (18-34) and three Cd concentrations (0.05-0.25 mg L-1) over 7 days. We quantified Cd accumulation, bioconce...
ABSTRACT Background The extensive use of pesticides in agriculture has increased their runoff into aquatic ecosystems, posing serious risks to non‐target organisms. Fish are recognized as sensitive bioindicators and are widely used to evaluate the ecological impacts of pesticide contamination. Objective This study inve...

Cadmium (Cd) exposure can affect metal handling, metabolism and tissue condition in bivalves on different timescales. We examined these responses in the blood clam Anadara kagoshimensis (Tokunaga, 1906) exposed to a nominal Cd concentration of 100 μg/L. Respiration, tissue Cd, redox biomarkers and histology were assess...
