Estrogen mimicking effects of xenobiotics in fish
Sex hormones produced in humans and livestock are excreted in the urine. Naturally produced and synthetic contraceptive pill estrogens may pass low-quality waste water processing plants and feminize male fish in streams and coastal areas downstream such discharges [1,2]. High-quality processing of the wastewater with tertiary treatment, nutrient removal and sufficient water and sludge retention...
متن کاملSignal transduction by xenobiotics in fish.
Signal transduction by xenobiotics in fish has recently gained much attention. The better known transduction mechanisms are those elicited by organochlorines, organophosphates, carbamates and heavy metals. Organochlorines specifically bind to the membrane bound ouabain sensitive Na+-K+-ATPase affecting neural transmission while the organophosphates and carbamates bind specifically to the membra...
متن کاملEffects of xenobiotics on total antioxidant capacity
The objective of this article was to review the effects of xenobiotics on total antioxidant capacity (TAC). Measurement of TAC is appropriate for evaluation of the total antioxidant defenses of blood, cells, and different kinds of tissues and organs. TAC is reduced by alcoholism, smoking, and exposure to radiation, herbicides, carbon monoxide, carbon tetrachloride, lead, arsenic, mercury, cadmi...
متن کاملthe effects of changing roughness on the flow structure in the bends
flow in natural river bends is a complex and turbulent phenomenon which affects the scour and sedimentations and causes an irregular bed topography on the bed. for the reason, the flow hydralics and the parameters which affect the flow to be studied and understand. in this study the effect of bed and wall roughness using the software fluent discussed in a sharp 90-degree flume bend with 40.3cm ...
