Assessing organic toxic pollutants in fish-canning factory effluents using cultured fish cells

Abstract: The fibroblastic RTG-2 fish cell line has been used to assess the cytotoxicity of organic compounds present in the effluents discharged by a canning factory. Organic compounds of the effluents were extracted and concentrated, and their cytotoxicity determined by measuring three end points: the cellular mass, the cell viability and the intracellular ATP content of the cells. Three out of the four organic concentrates were found to be highly cytotoxic, and these three toxic concentrates were fractionated, into 2… Show more

“…Several authors such as Shúilleabháin et al 2004, Lopéz et al 1998, Castaño et al, 1996, Vega et al 1995 Acetylcholinesterases exhibit genetic and molecular polymorphism and their distributions and physiological roles differ among species (Massoullie; Scaps and Forget). As a consequence, the degree of inhibition associated with toxicity is highly variable (Lundebye et al, 1997) depending on the studied specie.…”
