Microplastics (MPs) are physical anthropogenic pollutants and their ability to act as contaminant vectors in biological matrices is of serious ecosystem human health concern. In the present study, we have, for first time, screened detected MPs stomach a select group commonly consumed fish species from municipal water supply lake (Eleyele) Nigeria. A total 109 samples consisting eight (8) species: Coptodon zillii (CZ: n = 38), Oreochromis niloticus (ON: 43), Sarotheron melanotheron (SM: 19),...
The chemical inhibition of acetyl-cholinesterase (AChE) is a potent strategy for addressing signal related neuropathology and natural products are potential sources compounds with such properties. Essential oil extracts from leaf, seed, stem rhizome four medicinal plants [Aframomum melegueta K. Schum, Crassocephalum crepidioides (Benth S. More), Monodora myristica (Gaertn.), Ocimum gratissimum (Linn)] were tested inhibitory activity (AChEI) using Ellman's colorimentric method compared to...
The pesticide ecosystem impacts are very diverse, and depending on their persistence could exert intrinsic toxicity within an acute to a chronic timeframe. This study examined the toxic effects of Diazinon haematological biochemical endpoints in Oreochromis mossambicus after exposure. After prior range fining test, fishes were exposed predetermined diazinon concentrations (T1-0.906 mg/L) (T2-1.812 sampled 28 days for endpoints. In Diazinon-exposed fish, haemoglobin content, Total Red Blood...
We have investigated the occurrence, distribution, and biomagnification of per- polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) in two tropical lakes (Asejire Eleyele) Southwestern Nigeria, with contrasting urban intensities. Over an 8-month period, we sampled sediment fish species (Clarias gariepinus: CIG; Oreochromis niloticus: ON; Coptodon guineensis: CG; Sarotherodon melanotheron: SM) across trophic levels, analyzed various PFAS congeners, addition to a select group toxicological responses. While...
Abstract The world's 1.4 million lakes (≥10 ha) provide many ecosystem services that are essential for human well‐being; however, only if their health status is good. Here, we reviewed common lake issues and classified them using a simple health‐based approach to outline living systems in need of oxygen, clean water balanced energy nutrient supply. main reason adopting some the terminology classification increase awareness understanding global issues. We show exposed various anthropogenic...
Diazinon exposures have been linked to the onset of toxic pathways and adverse outcomes in aquatic species, but ecological implications on model species are not widely emphasized. The objective this study was determine how organophosphate pesticide diazinon affected hematological (hemoglobin, total red blood count, white mean corpuscular hemoglobin), growth (condition factor, hepatosomatic index, specific rate), biochemical (total serum glucose, protein), endocrine (growth hormone,...
The present study has investigated per- and poly-fluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) in the gill tissues of various fish species inhabiting different trophic levels within Eleyele Lake, a tropical freshwater lake Nigeria. mean concentrations PFAS congeners were determined, their trends patterns analyzed across species. results revealed variations congener abundance species-specific that was influenced by habitat niche preferences. Multivariate associations using canonical-correlation analysis...
Introduction: Estrogenic chemicals in aquatic environments impact fish reproductive health, with vitellogenin protein levels serving as a crucial biomarker for xenoestrogen exposure. Limited knowledge exists on estrogenic effects tropical environments, prompting an investigation into the influence of environmental estrogens Chrysichthys nigrodigitatus Lagos and Epe lagoons. Methods: A total 195 samples underwent analysis protein, sex hormones (testosterone 17 β-estradiol), gonad pathology...
