Objectives: The aim of this study was to assess the effect of the subchronic exposure of early stages of common carp (Cyprinus carpio L.) to norfloxacin using morphometric data and oxidative stress parameters.

Methods: A subchronic toxicity test was performed on fertilized embryos of common carp according to the OECD Guidelines No.

Objectives: The aim of this study was to assess the impact of ciprofloxacin in Danio rerio on growth, on the development of histopathological changes in selected organs (gills, kidney, liver), and on the activity of some oxidative stress markers during a 28-day toxicity test.

Methods: Juvenile growth tests were performed on D. rerio according to OECD guideline No.

The aim of the study was to investigate the effects of subchronic exposure of zebrafish (Danio rerio) to a fluoroquinolone norfloxacin, using selected oxidative stress parameters as a target. Toxicity tests were performed on zebrafish according to the OECD Guidelines number 203 and number 215. In the Subchronic Toxicity Test, a significant (P < 0.

Ubiquitous occurrence of pharmaceuticals in aquatic environment results in concern about potential adverse the effects on nontarget organisms. In water, drugs are present in complex mixtures, in which complicated interactions affect toxicity of single components. The purpose of this study was to examine effect of 35-day-long exposure to mixture of ibuprofen, diclofenac, and carbamazepine on the mortality, growth, early ontogeny, and histopathological changes in tench (Tinca tinca).

Article Synopsis
  • This study aimed to assess how juvenile zebrafish respond to prolonged exposure to acetylsalicylic acid using oxidative stress biomarkers over a 28-day period.
  • Results showed that specific antioxidant enzyme activities, such as glutathione S-transferase and catalase, significantly increased in fish exposed to certain concentrations of acetylsalicylic acid, indicating a protective response against oxidative stress.
  • Overall, exposure to acetylsalicylic acid led to enhanced antioxidant enzyme activity and reduced lipid peroxidation, suggesting a potential adaptive mechanism in zebrafish to counteract toxin effects.
