Imidacloprid induced growth, hematological, neuro-behavior, anti-oxidant, economic, genetic, and histopathological alterations in Clarias gariepinus: Alleviative role of dietary Hyphaene thebaica
The current study was a pioneer attempt to explore the toxicological impacts of imidacloprid (IMI) pesticide and to investigate the efficiency of Hyphaene thebaica fruit (HTF) as a dietary supplement in attenuating the IMI effect in African catfish (Clarias gariepinus). Fish were sampled after 2 mon...

Zusammenfassung: | The current study was a pioneer attempt to explore the toxicological impacts of imidacloprid (IMI) pesticide and to investigate the efficiency of Hyphaene thebaica fruit (HTF) as a dietary supplement in attenuating the IMI effect in African catfish (Clarias gariepinus). Fish were sampled after 2 months of exposure to IMI (1/5 LC50: nominal 2.03 μg/L) and HTF (15 g/kg diet) supplementation, in combination or individually. Growth, hematological, stress, and antioxidant indicators, besides the mRNA expression of various genes in gills tissues and immunohistochemical and economic parameters, were assessed. The outcomes demonstrated that IMI exposure induced behavioral changes, and a significant decrease (p |
