“…On the other hand, leukopenia (decrease in WBC) is attributed to a toxicity-induced general stress response (causing particularly lymphopenia and an increase of neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio) or specific toxic action affecting circulating leukocytes or leukopoiesis resulting in immunosuppression. Leukocytosis (increase in numbers of all types of leukocytes) was reported by Ligina et al [ 22 ] in Anabas testudineus during intoxication with acrylamide. According to Zahran et al [ 37 ], exposure to insecticide chlorpyrifos caused leukocytosis in Oreochromis niloticus .…”

“…However, usually it is difficult to identify an exact cause of anemia. Ligina et al [ 22 ] reported a decrease in Ht, RBC, and Hb, and an MCV increase in Anabas testudineus treated with acrylamide. Yonar et al [ 23 ] found a decrease in RBC, Hb, Ht, MCV, MCH, and MCHC in Cyprinus carpio subjected to organophosphate insecticide chlorpyrifos and explained anemia with possible impairment of erythropoietic activity, osmoregulatory disturbances, or accelerated eryptosis in the hematopoietic tissue.…”

Hematological analysis is commonly used to assess the physiological state of fish. It includes red blood cell parameters, white blood cell parameters, and the number of thrombocytes per blood volume unit. Hematological analysis is one of the basic tools (often accompanied by biochemical and histopathological analyses) to assess the influence of organic and inorganic substances on fish. It is, therefore, applicable in both ecotoxicology and pharmacotoxicology. The advantages of this research method are the lack of need for specialized laboratory equipment and low costs, and the limitations are the need for extensive experience among the personnel performing the tests. One of the recommended methods of supplementing routinely determined hematological parameters is assessing the cellular composition and activity of hematopoietic tissue. As there is very little scientific data available on the issue of the effects of xenobiotics on the cellular structure of fish head kidney hematopoietic tissue, filling this gap should be considered an urgent need. Therefore, we recommend conducting research with the simultaneous use of hematological and hematopoietic analysis as reliable and complementary methods of assessing the impact of toxic substances on fish.

“…Besides, many studies have shown a lethal concentration of ACR in several fish species (Gopika et al 2018b;Krautter et al 1986;Larguinho et al 2014b;Moura et al 2019;Shanker and Seth 1986;Spencer et al 2018). Recently, Ligina et al (2022) exhibited that ACR at sublethal levels (13.4 µg/L) induced alteration in hematological indices and suppressed redox status in gill tissue of the A. testudineus fish. The main objective of the current literature was to shed light on the structure and resources of ACR, and its stability in the ecosystem and release into stream water.…”

Acrylamide (ACR) is widely applied in various industrial activities, as well as in the water purification process. Furthermore, ACR is synthesized naturally in some starchy grains exposed to high temperatures for an extended time during the cooking process. Because of its widespread industrial usage, ACR might be released into water stream sources. Also, ACR poses a high risk of contaminated surface and ground-water resources due to its high solubility and mobility in water. Furthermore, animal studies have indicated that ACR exposure may cause cancer (in many organs such as lung, prostate, uterus, and pancreas), genetic damage (in both somatic and germ cells), and severe effects on reproduction and development. Recently, numerous studies have shown that ACR has a mild acute cytotoxic impact on aquatic species, particularly during early life stages. Besides, wide-spectrum usage of ACR in many industrial activities presented higher environmental risks as well as major hazards to consumer health. This literature was designed to include all potential and accessible reports on ACR toxicity related with aquatic species. The Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews were applied to evaluate the risk effects of ACR on aquatic organisms, the ACR sub-lethal concentration in the ecosystem, and the possible protective benefits of various feed additives against ACR toxicity in fish. The major findings are summarized in Tables 2 and 3. The primary aim of this literature was to specify the hazards of ACR toxicity related with fish welfare and possible suggested strategies to reduce its risks.
