Changes in nutritional parameters in diploid and triploid African catfish Clarias gariepinus following chlorpyrifos exposure
There is a paucity of information about the influence of ploidy status on physiological parameters in organisms following contaminant stress. Also, little is known about the changes in nutritional values of fishes in response to the exposure to contaminants. Full-sibling juvenile Clarias gariepinus were exposed to 3 levels (mean measured 8.9, 17.5, or 28.0 μg l−1) of chlorpyrifos for 21 d. The ...
متن کاملInduction of triploidy with caffeine treatment in the African catfish (Clarias gariepinus)
Induction of triploidy is one of the biotechnological methods in aquaculture used for genetic manipulation. It refers to a state where organisms have three complete sets of chromosomes instead of two and can result in sterility. Caffeine treatment that is safe and inexpensive, serve to induce triploidy in catfish. To suppress the second meiotic division, fertilized eggs were exposed to three di...

متن کاملChanges in behavior and hematological parameters of freshwater African catfish Clarias gariepinus (Burchell 1822) following sublethal exposure to chloramphenicol.
The present study was aimed at evaluating the effects of different concentrations of the most commonly used fish antimicrobial drug, chloramphenicol (CAP), on the behavior and hematological parameters of Clarias gariepinus. Fish specimens were exposed to three (2.5, 5.0 and 10.0 mg L(-1)) sublethal concentrations of CAP and a control. Abnormal behavioral changes were observed in fish exposed to...
متن کاملProvisional clinical chemistry parameters in the African sharptooth catfish (Clarias gariepinus).
Pollution affects aquatic systems worldwide and there is an urgent need for efficient monitoring. Fish are generally sensitive to their environment and are thus considered to be valuable bioindicator species. The African Sharptooth catfish (Clarias gariepinus) is particularly important in this respect because of its very wide distribution. In order to use C. gariepinus as a bioindicator species...
