Abstract
Cypermethrin (CYP) is a chemical of emerging concern which has persistent and bioaccumulating impacts as it can be found extensively in freshwater ecosystem and agricultural products. It has exposure risk and toxic effects over human edible fish, as common carp. Four groups were designed for toxicity assessment and detoxification approach: control group (CL), CYP exposure group (CYP), CYP + 10% M. oleifera leaves and 10% M. oleifera seeds (CMO group), 10% M. oleifera leaves and 10% M. oleifera seeds (MO group). Trial period was forty days during which cohort of 240 fish in CYP and CMO group was exposed to 1/5 of 96h LC50 of CYP (0.1612 μg/L). CYP-exposed carp exhibited lower growth parameters, but carp fed with 10% M. oleifera seeds and leaves showed significant improvement in growth rate (SGR, RGR) and weight gain (WG) as compared to the control group. CYP exposure negatively affected haemato-biochemical parameters. Moreover, CYP exposure also led to oxidative stress, damaged immunological parameters, genotoxicity and histopathological damage in liver and intestinal cells. Whereas, M. oleifera supplementation has ameliorated these conditions. Thereby, supplementation with M. oleifera is potential and novel therapeutic detoxication approach for common carp and human health against persistent and bioaccumulating emerging chemicals.

Abstract
BACKGROUND When pesticides are introduced into wetlands by agriculture, fish quickly absorb them through their gills. Pesticides reduce hatchability, impede growth, and antioxidant response, killing fish. Therefore, it's crucial to find effective pesticide mitigation methods for fish. OBJECTIVE In this study, the effects of garlic (Allium sativum) oil on the growth, haematology, biochemistry and histopathology parameters of Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) exposed to cypermethrin toxicity were investigated. METHODS In the research, cypermethrin was added to the water of the experimental groups at a rate of 1:20 of the LC50 value, and 1.00% garlic oil was added to the fish feed. Fish with an initial weight of 30.26 ± 0.26 g were fed for 45 days. RESULTS At the end of feeding, the final weights were determined as 69.39 ± 0.41 (G1), 61.81 ± 0.65 (G2), 82.25 ± 0.36 (G3), and 75.04 ± 0.68 (G4) grams, respectively. Histopathological examinations revealed serious lesions in the gill, liver, brain, and muscle tissues in the cypermethrin group, whereas these lesions were minimal or absent in the garlic oil group. CONCLUSIONS Garlic oil supplementation had positive effects on growth, haematology, blood biochemistry, hepatosomatic index and histopathological parameters. These findings suggest that garlic oil is a potential protective agent against cypermethrin toxicity.

Abstract
Acute toxicity experiments were conducted to determine the lethal concentration 50 (LC50) of the Up Grade®46% SL for Oreochromis niloticus. Our results showed that the 96-h LC50 value of UPGR for O. niloticus was 29.16 mg L-1. To study hemato-biochemical effects, fish were exposed for 15 days to individual UPGR at 2.916 mg L-1, individual polyethylene microplastics (PE-MPs) at 10 mg L-1, and to their combinations UPGR+PE-MPs. UPGR exposure induced significant decrease in account of red blood cells (RBCs) and white blood cells (WBCs), platelets, monocytes, neutrophils, eosinophils, and the concentrations of hemoglobin (Hb), hematocrit (Hct), and mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration (MCHC) than other treatments, compared to the control group. Sub-acute UPGR exposure significantly increase lymphocytes, mean corpuscular volume (MCV), and mean corpuscular hemoglobin (MCH), compared to the control group. In conclusion, UPGR and PE-MPs displayed antagonistic toxic effects due to maybe the sorption of UPGR onto PE-MPs.

Abstract
Wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) continuously release a complex mixture of municipal, hospital, industrial, and runoff chemicals into the aquatic environment. These contaminants are both legacy contaminants and emerging-concern contaminants, affecting all tissues in a fish body, particularly the liver. The fish liver is the principal detoxifying organ and effects of consistent pollutant exposure can be evident on its cellular and tissue level. The objective of this paper is thus to provide an in-depth analysis of the WWTP contaminants' impact on the fish liver structure, physiology, and metabolism. The paper also gives an overview of the fish liver biotransformation enzymes, antioxidant enzymes, and non-enzymatic antioxidants, their role in metabolizing xenobiotic compounds and coping with oxidative damage. Emphasis has been placed on highlighting the vulnerability of fish to xenobiotic compounds, and on biomonitoring of exposed fish, generally involving observation of biomarkers in caged or native fish. Furthermore, the paper systematically assesses the most common contaminants with the potential to affect fish liver tissue.

FISH & SHELLFISH IMMUNOLOGY 2022; 129:221-230.

Abstract
In this study, we investigate the potentials of dietary curcumin and resveratrol on blood biochemistry, immune responses and resistance to the toxicity of the pesticide, abamectin. 540 common carps (30.78 ± 0.17 g) were randomly distributed into 18 tanks (30 fish per tank), as six experimental groups (T1: non-supplemented and on-exposed fish, T2: 300 mg/kg curcumin, T3: 300 mg/kg resveratrol, T4: 12.5% LC50 of abamectin, T5: 300 mg/kg curcumin +12.5% LC50 of abamectin, T6: 300 mg/kg resveratrol + 12.5% LC50 of abamectin). Use of 300 mg/kg resveratrol in the diet of non-abamectin exposed fish improved the growth performance (P < 0.05), while such effects were not observed for curcumin (P > 0.05). There were no differences in the final weight (FW), feed conversion ratio (FCR) and weight gain (WG) between control and fish of the treatments, resveratrol + abamectin and curcumin + abamectin (P < 0.05). The immune components in blood [lysozyme, complement activity, Total immunoglobulin (total Ig), protease, myeloperoxidase (MPO), nitro-blue-tetrazolium (NBT), peroxidase, albumin] and mucus [acid phosphatase (ACP), alkaline phosphatase (ALP), esterase, antiprotease)] and antioxidant enzymes [(superoxide dismutase (SOD), glutathione peroxidase (GPx)] exhibited various change patterns compared to the control group, however, these components were almost all higher in fish supplemented with curcumin and resveratrol in an abamectin-free medium than in control and other groups (P < 0.05). In most cases, the levels of immune and antioxidant components in the control did not show significant difference with the treatments, resveratrol + abamectin and curcumin + abamectin (P > 0.05). Abamectin induced oxidative stress in fish, as the malondialdehyde (MDA) levels significantly increased in the exposed fish compared to non-exposed groups (P < 0.05). It appears that neither curcumin nor resveratrol were as effective in preventing oxidative stress, because MDA levels were higher in exposed fish (abamectin, curcumin + abamectin, resveratrol + abamectin) than in control and non-exposed individuals (P < 0.05). Curcumin and resveratrol also showed protective effects on liver, since the levels of liver metabolic enzymes [aspartate transaminase (AST), ALP, lactate dehydrogenase (LDH)] were lower in the supplemented fish in a abamectin-free medium than in control (P < 0.05). Curcumin and resveratrol also mitigated the stress responses in the exposed fish, as cortisol and glucose levels showed significant decreases in the supplemented fish (P < 0.05). In conclusion, this study revealed that abamectin can depress the growth and immunity in the common carp. Although, both resveratrol and curcumin were mitigated the toxic effects of abamectin, it seems that resveratrol be more effective than curcumin.

Abstract
Intense agricultural activities are performed in the Ebro River Delta (NE Spain) with extensive use of pesticides. Medium to highly polar pesticides have not been studied intensively in sediments despite its larger use in the recent years. This work aimed at assessing the occurrence of 69 pesticides, including medium to highly polar compounds, in sediments collected from drainage and irrigation channels of the Ebro River Delta during the main rice growing season. In addition, an environmental risk assessment was performed to evaluate the potential adverse effects to sediment-dwelling organisms with the risk quotient approach. A total of 24 pesticides were detected in sediments with bentazone and cypermethrin exhibiting high detection frequencies (79%) as well as high mean concentration levels (61.9 and 81.8 ng g-1 dw, respectively). Overall, the Alfacs bay, in the South of the delta, presented higher pesticide contamination than the Fangar bay, in the North. A similar pesticide distribution profile was observed in both bays, with oxadiazoles, organochlorines, pyrethroids, benzothiazinones and organophosphates as major, predominant classes. The presence of oxadiazon, pendimethalin and thifensulfuron methyl in the sediments may pose a moderate risk to sediment-dwelling organisms while bentazone, chlorpyrifos, and cypermethrin exhibited a potential high risk. Thus, the importance of the inclusion of medium to highly polar pesticides in the analysis of sediments is emphasized since some polar pesticides such as bentazone, imidacloprid, and thifensulfuron-methyl have been detected at concentrations that may pose a risk to aquatic organisms. Moreover, the co-occurrence of pesticides may potentially pose a high risk to sediment-dwelling organisms in 13 out of the 14 investigated locations. Finally, it could be concluded that the risk derived from the presence of pesticides in sediments must be assessed since some pesticides not detected at concerning levels in water, may pose a moderate/high risk in the sediments.

Abstract
The current study estimates the impact of different common herbicides on antioxidant defenses and histological structure of liver and spinal cord of juvenile tilapia. Eighty-four fish were divided into seven groups: group 1 fish acted as controls and the remaining fish were exposed to sublethal concentrations of acetochlor, bispyribac-sodium, bentazon, bensulfuron-methyl, halosulfuron-methyl, or quinclorac at sublethal concentrations 2.625, 0.800, 36.00, 2.50, 1.275, and 11.250 mg/l, respectively, for 96 h. Antioxidant parameters changed in response to some test herbicides and the greatest effects were caused by exposure to acetochlor and quinelorac for all antioxidant measurements. Prominent histological changes in liver tissue included loss of liver architecture and the appearance of fatty liver cells, necrotic areas, foci of leukocytic infiltration and many apoptotic cells. The most obvious changes in the spinal cord in all treated fish were degradation of myelinated white matter fibers with the emergence of empty spaces, large aggregation of pyknotic neuroglial nuclei, and damaged areas in the dorsal horn of gray matter. Collectively, the harmful effect of tested herbicides on antioxidant capacity and significant alterations in histological structures of liver and spinal cord of Oreochromis niloticus.

Abstract
The effects of Harness® toxicity on fish health are little known. So, current work aimed to study the impact of sub-lethal doses of Harness® (an acetochlor-based herbicide) on the African catfish, Clarias gariepinus, and also investigated the potential role of lycopene (LYCO) administration in alleviating Harness® negative effects. Fish were divided into five groups in triplicates as follows: group 1 (control) received no treatment, group 2 was exposed to 10 μm Harness®/L, group 3 was orally administered 10 mg LYCO/kg body weight and exposed to 10 μm Harness®/L, group 4 was exposed to 100 μm Harness®/L, and group 5 was orally administered 10 mg LYCO/kg body weight and exposed to 100 μm Harness®/L for 2 weeks. Some hemato-biochemical parameters, genotoxicity, and histopathological changes were assessed at the end of this period. Sub-lethal doses of Harness® altered the shape of erythrocytes in contrast to the control sample. Also, hematological parameters of exposed fish exhibited a significant (P < 0.05) reduction in the values of red blood cell count (RBCs), hemoglobin (Hb), hematocrit (HCT), and platelets (PL), as well as an insignificant (P > 0.05) drop in mean corpuscular volume (MCV). Harness® was also found to cause genotoxicity as well as histopathological alterations. LYCO administration decreased hemato-biochemical changes and returned them to near-normal levels. The findings showed that LYCO administration (10 mg LYCO/kg body weight) decreased Harness® toxicity in C. gariepinus and alleviated its destructive effects.

Abstract
In this study, effects of different concentrations (0, 5, 10, 20, 30, and 40 mg/L) of glyphosate-based herbicide (GBH) on Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) were investigated after a 14-day of exposure. After determination of LC50 value, effects of GBH on hematological and serum biochemical parameters in blood samples, DNA damage, lipid peroxidation and catalase activity in liver tissues, expression levels of antioxidant enzyme-related genes (SOD, CAT, GPx, and GST) and immune-related genes (TGF-β, TGF-α and IL1-β) were evaluated. The LC50 value has been found as 44.4 mg/L for GBH. GBH exposure at all concentrations caused alterations in blood parameters. GBH induced oxidative stress in liver and DNA damage in blood. Antioxidant enzyme-related genes were significantly up-regulated to suppress oxidative stress. On the other hand, the expression levels of immune-related genes decreased in fish exposure to particularly ≥20 mg/L GBH.

THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2021; 766:142630. [PMID: 33069465 DOI: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2020.142630] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/08/2020] [Revised: 09/21/2020] [Accepted: 09/23/2020] [Indexed: 06/11/2023]
Abstract
Acetochlor (ACT) as a widely used chiral chloroacetamide herbicide is appropriate to evaluate the potential toxicity in soil ecosystems at enantiomeric level. The acute and subchronic toxicities of R-acetochlor (R-ACT) and S-acetochlor (S-ACT) on earthworms (Eisenia fetida) were investigated in the present study. Residual analyses showed that S-ACT degraded faster than R-ACT in artificial soil with half-lives of 16.5 and 21.7 d, respectively. Additionally, significant enantioselective acute toxicity in earthworms from between S-ACT and R-ACT (p < 0.05) was observed, and the acute toxicity of R-ACT were 1.9 and 1.5 times higher than those of S-ACT in the filter paper test and artificial soil test. The hydroxyl radical (OH-) content, superoxide dismutase (SOD) and antioxidant enzyme catalase (CAT) activities, and cytochrome P450 content in earthworms significantly increased under the influence of ACT enantiomers; however, the acetylcholinesterase (AchE) activity was significantly inhibited after exposure to the two enantiomers. Moreover, lipid peroxidation and DNA damage were induced by ACT enantiomers. The results of transcriptome sequencing indicated that R-ACT induced a stronger oxidative stress effect than S-ACT in earthworms by mediating signaling pathways, which may be the primary reason for the enantioselective toxicity between S-ACT and R-ACT. Overall, the results demonstrated that R-ACT has a higher risk than S-ACT in the soil environment, which is important for understanding the enantioselective behavior of chloroacetamide pesticides.

Abstract
This work deals with the remediation of a soil that has been enriched with Quinclorac (QNC), one of the herbicides most used in Chile for weed control in rice fields. Quinclorac damages the microflora and macrofauna of soils and is toxic to some susceptible crops, which results in economic loses during crop rotation. Furthermore, Quinclorac a potential contaminant of water resources and soils, given its high mobility and persistence. This has created the need to lower its concentrations in soils intensively cultivated. In this study, an electro-kinetic soil washing system (EKSW) for mobilizing this pesticide in the soil was explored. The performance of this technology was compared by assessing the effect of direct (DP) and reverse (RP) polarity during 15 days under potentiostatic conditions and applying an electric field of 1 V cm-1 between electrodes. Among the main results, the highest removal of QNC was obtained through the EKSW-RP process, which also contributed to the prevention of acidity and alkaline fronts in the soil, compared to the EKSW-DP system. In both cases, the highest accumulation of QNC occurred in the cathodic well by mobilizing the non-ionized contaminant through the electroosmotic flow (EOF) from anode to cathode. After the treatment with EKSW, the wash water accumulated in the anodic and cathodic wells, which contained an important concentration of pesticide, was subjected to electro-oxidation (EO) by applying different current densities (j). The high generation of •OH on the surface of a boron-doped diamond electrode (BDD) allowed for the complete degradation and mineralization of QNC and its major intermediate compounds to CO2. The results of this study show that the application of both coupled stages in this type of remediation technologies would enable the removal of QNC from the soil without altering its chemical and physical properties, constituting an environmentally friendly process.

Abstract
In France, the implementation of mutant herbicide-tolerant crops and the use of the related herbicides - sulfonylureas and imidazolinones - have triggered a strong societal reaction illustrated by the intervening actions of environmentalist groups illegally mowing such crops. Trials are in progress, and therefore should be addressed the questions of the environmental risks and the toxicity of these herbicides for the animals and humans consuming the products derived from these plants. Regulatory authorities have allowed these mutant and herbicide-tolerant plants arguing that the herbicides against which they resist only target an enzyme found in 'weeds' (the acetolactate synthase, ALS), and that therefore all organisms lacking this enzyme would be endowed with immunity to these herbicides. The toxicological literature does not match with this argument: 1) Even in organisms displaying the enzyme ALS, these herbicides impact other molecular targets than ALS; 2) These herbicides are toxic for animals, organisms that do not possess the enzyme ALS, and especially invertebrates, amphibians and fish. In humans, epidemiological studies have shown that the use and handling of these toxins are associated with a significantly increased risk of colon and bladder cancers, and miscarriages. In agricultural soils, these herbicides have a persistence of up to several months, and water samples have concentrations of some of these herbicides above the limit value in drinking water.
