3,4-dichloroaniline (DCA) and its analogs are widely used as chemical intermediates in the synthesis of herbicides, azo dyes, and pharmaceuticals. They bring danger to growth, development, and propagation of aquatic organisms. The purpose of this study was to show DCA-induced oxidative stress response in liver of crucian carp (Carassius auratus). Superoxide dismutase (SOD), malondialdehyde (MDA), glutathione (GSH), nitric oxide (NO), and NO synthase (NOS) in liver were measured in crucian carp after exposure to DCA solution (0.2, 0.4, and 0.8 mg/L, respectively) for 15 days and compared with the control. DCA significantly induced SOD activity and enhanced MDA concentration in liver of crucian carp. Compared with the control, GSH and NO concentrations decreased and NOS activity was inhibited in crucian carp liver 15 days after DCA treatment. The data suggested that DCA-induced free radical generation and antioxidant depletion, and caused oxidative stress and lipid peroxidation in liver of crucian carp.

R-spondin1 (Rspo1) is a member of the secreted furin-like domain-containing protein family, and it is recognized for its significance in mammalian ovarian development. However, its role in teleost ovarian development remains largely uninvestigated. The Qi River crucian carp (Carassius auratus) is a species capable of gynogenesis, and it encounters challenges of premature ovarian maturation in aquaculture settings.

Potential effects of microplastics (MP, plastic particles <5 mm) on the levels of multiple stress biomarkers were investigated in wild fish populations of Cyprinus carpio, Mugil cephalus, Platichthys flesus captured in the Minho River estuary located in the Iberian Peninsula. Specimens were collected in March and September 2018, corresponding to the end of winter and summer, respectively. Based on the concentration of MP determined by FT-IR analysis and morphological inspection, fishes from each species were divided into two groups: ≤0.

Aquaculture organisms may accumulate metals to induce health risks. Compared with the focus on total contents, chemical-specific risk assessment makes reasonable but is rare. Herein, we elucidated occurrence of twelve metal compounds in shrimp and fish (edible muscle, one of major metal-containing and generally targeted organs), water, sediment, and feedstuff from two aquaculture ponds in Zhejiang Province (one of the major aquatic production and consumption areas).
