Effect of waterborne copper exposure on growth, hepatic enzymatic activities and histology in Synechogobius hasta

The present study was conducted to determine growth, hepatic enzymatic activities and histology in Synechogobius hasta exposed to waterborne copper concentrations of 0 (control), 0.15 and 0.3mgCu/l, respectively, for 15 days, and explore whether waterborne copper exposure could induce the fatty live...

Zusammenfassung:The present study was conducted to determine growth, hepatic enzymatic activities and histology in Synechogobius hasta exposed to waterborne copper concentrations of 0 (control), 0.15 and 0.3mgCu/l, respectively, for 15 days, and explore whether waterborne copper exposure could induce the fatty liver syndrome for the fish species. Growth (WG and SGR) declined, but HSI increased in S. hasta with increasing waterborne copper levels (P
