“…The reduction of oxygen generally expands synthesis of hemoglobin, releases of blood cells from storage sites, and enhances erythropoiesis. Similar results were recorded by (Mehjbeen, and Nazura 2013) and Shah (2006), who reported significant increases in the red blood cells, hematocrit and platelets in Tinca tinca when it was exposed to heavy metals. The significant increases in the WBC may be as a result of intensive secretion of corticosteroid hormones (Dutta and Kaviraj, 1996).…”

Accumulation of some heavy metals (copper, iron, manganese, nickel and zinc) and its effect on the hematological indices on the freshwater fish (Oreochromis niloticus) were studied. Fish Samples were collected from the River Nile near El-Kanater El-Khyria and contaminated water from Iron and Steel Basin in El-Safe Village near Helwan, south of Cairo. Results of this study showed that there was a significant difference between the water qualities indices among the two different locations. Meanwhile, fish samples that collected from polluted location showed high values for the hematological indices namely hemoglobin (Hb), red blood count (RBC), hematocrit (Hct), white blood cell count (WBC) and erythrocyte. Moreover, the concentrations of heavy metals were also high in the fish. However, the levels of the heavy metal accumulation were within the maximum permissible limit for human consumption (FAO, 1992). The order of bioaccumulation of such metals in the liver of fish were Fe > Zn> Cu > Mn > Ni. It was concluded for this study that the discharge of different types of wastes, especially heavy metals from washing process of Iron and Steel in Helwan Company deteriorated the water quality and consequently affecting the fish. It is recommended to treat the different wastes before discharging to Iron and Steel Basin in ElSafe Village.

“…Liver was also reported to as high Ni accumulating tissue by Ayas et al [23]. Nickel was found to be highly accumulated in gills of Channa punctatus as compared to liver [24]. The maximum permissible level of EPA for Ni is 27 µg g -1 [13].…”

The concentrations of Pb, Fe, Ni, Cr, Cu, Zn and As in tissues of two freshwater fish species (C. carpio and L. rohita) caught from Chashma barrage, Indus river, (Pakistan) during winter, spring, summer and autumn seasons of 2013-14 were measured by atomic absorption spectrometry. Metal levels varied depending on the type of tissue, season and fish species. Mean metal concentrations in tissues of L. rohita were in the following ranges (µg g -1 ):

“…There are many studies on the influence of heavy metals on erythrocyte morphology and hematological parameters of both marine and freshwater fish species (Witeska, 1998;Buthelezi et al, 2000;Vinodhini and Narayanan, 2009;Ranjana and Peyush, 2011;Jyoti and Seema, 2014;Vesela et al, 2014;Javed and Usmani, 2014). These studies evaluated the effect of heavy metal element or a small group of elements on fish hematological parameters.…”

This research focuses on hematological characteristics, erythrocyte morphology and some biochemical parameters of red drum Sciaenops ocellatus (Perciformes: Sciaenidae), cultured in natural water environment in areas near river mouth (L1), estuaries (L2) in Ha Tinh province and coastal areas (L3) in Nha Trang city, Khanh Hoa province of Vietnam. A total of 18 speciments were examined in research, six in each location. Blood was drawn from the tail vein, using a microscope to research morphology and automated gauges to determine blood biochemical parameters. Analysis of blood samples showed that the rate of red drum’s erythrocyte morphology disorders in all three locations was quite high. The two main types of disorders were nuclear deformity and nuclear-matter distribution. Changes in erythrocyte size, shape and nuclear were related to salt concentration at culture locations. Blood hemoglobin content was stable in all three regions. Other hematological parameters such as the number of erythrocytes, blood biochemical parameters (glucose, SGOT, SGPT, urea, creatine, plasma iron, albumin, and protein) have differences among the locations, which showed the different reactions of the same species with different environmental conditions.
