Abstract:Aquaculture intensification has resulted in serious disease outbreaks in largemouth bass production. Compounds containing copper (Cu) are widely used as therapeutic agents in aquaculture. Currently, Cu misuse has been a severe issue in largemouth bass farming. However, few investigations have been performed on Cu toxicity in largemouth bass so far. In this study, an acute and a chronic toxicity test was carried out to determine the toxicity and the recommended dose of waterborne Cu in largemouth bass. In the a… Show more
