widespread use of nanosilver can be led the contamination of aquatic environment and impact on living organisms such as fishes. we investigated histopathological changes in the gills tissue of caspian roach fingerlings after two weeks exposure to sublethal concentrations of nanosilver. following one and two weeks exposure, necrosis, shortening of secondary lamellae, edema, destruction of epithe...

The present study has been conducted on Caspian Roach (Rutilus rutilus) so that the impact of different concentrations lead on blood hematological, biochemical, and immunological indicators could be investigated. The roach (Rutilus rutilus), used in this study, was 3.3±0.3 g heavy and 4±0.80 cm long in average. The fish were exposed to a low concentration of 10% LC50 and high concentration of 5...

Chemical contamination of aquatic environments to EDCs has become a major focus of environmental toxicology research. The exposure of fishes to estrogenic EDCs in aquatic environments is most frequently assessed by analyzing Vitellogenin (Vg) (the egg yolk precursor protein) expression. Therefore, characterization of Vg gene is of high priority for EDCs bio-monitoring. So, we prepared liver tis...
