Evaluation of occupational health and safety risk factors in Turkish marine fish hatcheries.

In this study, the approaches of employees in marine fish hatcheries to occupational health and safety were determined. Cronbach's coefficient was calculated as 0.858 in the reliability of the scale and scale factors based on internal consistency.

In vivo and in vitro evolution of the effects of cypermethrin on turbot (Scophthalmus maximus, Linnaeus, 1758) spermatozoa.

Synthetic pyrethroid pesticide is commonly used in agricultural activities in the Black Sea region during reproduction period of turbot. In this sense, in vivo and in vitro studies have shown that cypermethrin (CYP) could be one of the environmental factors affecting decreasing turbot stocks. In this study, effects of in vivo and in vitro administration of CYP, a synthetic pyrethroid, on sperm kinematics motility (MOT), progressive motility (PM), curvilinear velocity (VCL), straight line velocity (VSL), average path velocity (VAP), linearity (LIN), straight line velocity (STR), amplitude of lateral head (ALH), beat cross frequency (BCF), oxidative stress biomarkers malondialdehyde (MDA), reduced glutathione (GSH), superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), glutathione peroxidase (GPx) and lipid peroxidation (LPO) and also histopathological alterations in gonads were investigated in spermatazoa of turbot (Schopthalmus maximus).
