Although pesticides have been a constant concern for decades, in the last ten years, public discussions and scientific research have emphasized their impact on human health and the environment, drawing increased attention to the problems associated with their use. The association of environmental stressors such as pesticides with a sugar-rich diet can contribute to the growing global metabolic disease epidemic through overlapping mechanisms of insulin resistance, inflammation, and metabolic dysregulation. The main aim of this study was to evaluate the behavioral effects of the exposure of Silver crucian carp () to a commercial insecticide formulation containing fipronil, pyriproxyfen, and other additives, as well as sucrose and their mixtures.

Potato (Solanum tuberosum) cultivation faces the challenge of excessive pesticide use. During processing, the disposal of large volumes of contaminated water into water bodies can result in severe environmental damage, such as fish deaths. This study aimed to evaluate the toxicological effects of chemical compounds present in the effluent from a potato-processing industry using the test organism Cyprinus carpio.

Pesticides including insecticides are often applied to prevent distortion posed by plant insect pests. However, the application of these chemicals detrimentally affected the non-target organisms including soil biota. Fipronil (FIP), a broad-spectrum insecticide, is extensively used to control pests across the globe.

Fipronil exposure alters oxidative stress responses of Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) to acute moderate hypoxia.

Aquat Toxicol

January 2025

FURB Fundação Universidade Regional de Blumenau, Department of Natural Sciences, Blumenau, Santa Catarina, Brazil. Electronic address:

Acute hypoxia is known to increase the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS), leading to modulation in antioxidant defenses. Pollutant exposure can potentiate ROS generation during hypoxic events and impair antioxidant defenses, increasing the susceptibility of hypoxia-tolerant fishes, such as the Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus), to oxidative stress. The purpose of this study was to evaluate oxidative stress responses of O.

Article Synopsis
  • - A new bimetallic nanorod structure was created using a Raman reporter to enhance the detection of the insecticide fipronil in a specific immunoassay technique called SERS-LFIA.
  • - This method achieved a very low detection limit for fipronil at 4.6 pg/mL and is the first of its kind specifically for this insecticide, demonstrating effectiveness in real food samples like cucumber and apple juice.
  • - The use of antibodies to functionalize the SERS nanotag offers a flexible approach for enhancing various lateral flow immunoassays, improving their overall performance.
