This paper reports the validation and application of a method for determination of 10 perfluorochemicals (PFCs) in retail fish and shellfish. The analytes of interest were 7 perfluorinated carboxylates and 3 perfluorinated sulfonates. Fish and shellfish samples were digested with a basic solution of 10 mM sodium hydroxide in methanol before sonication and solid phase extraction through weak anion exchange. Analysis was performed using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. Recoveries from spiking five different types of fish and shellfish indicate that the method performs similarly with different fish types, and recoveries were over 90% for all analytes. Forty-six retail samples, collected between 2010 and 2012, including 13 different types of fish and shellfish were analyzed for PFCs. The 13 different types included the top 10 most-consumed fish and shellfish in the United States according to data collected by the National Fisheries Institute. Two Standard Reference Materials were also analyzed. Most fish and shellfish had no detected PFCs; only 11 samples of the 46 tested had detectable concentrations of PFCs.

Mammalian Nedd4 family interacting protein 1 (Ndfip1) serves as an activator of the E3 ubiquitin ligase, promoting ubiquitination and limiting the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines. However, the functional role of teleost Ndfip1 is not completely understood. In the current study, an Ndfip1 gene designated as OnNdfip1 was characterized in Nile tilapia.

This study investigated the potential protective effect of AS-IV against heat stress-induced tissue damage in grass carp (Ctenopharyngodon idella). Grass carp were injected intraperitoneally with 0, 2, 4, and 8 mg/kg of AS-IV for three consecutive days, and then subjected to heat stress (35 ± 0.5°C); thereafter, histopathological analyses of the liver and spleen were performed at 0, 6, 24, and 48 h, respectively.

Emamectin benzoate (EMB) is an antibiotic insecticide pesticide modified from avermectin. In the current study, we performed an in-depth investigation of the protective effects of epicatechin on EMB-induced liver injury in common carps. The carps were cultured in an aquatic environment containing 2.

The study aimed to assess the impact of dietary supplementation with tannic acid on the growth, health, and survival of Oreochromis niloticus following exposure to Aeromonas hydrophila. A total of 320 fish were divided into 16 tanks and assigned to four treatment groups: feed with 0.2 % tannic acid (TA), 0.
