“…The tissue structure of fresh crayfish was determined using a previously reported method, with slight modification. 19,20 Crayfish tissues were fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde for over 24 h. The tissue samples were trimmed with a scalpel and dehydrated with different concentrations of alcohol (75% for 4 h, 85% for 2 h, 90% for 2 h, 95% for 1 h and 100% for 30 min). Tissue samples were treated with transparent xylene, embedded in paraffin and cut into sections with a thickness of 4 μm.…”

“…De Melo et al. (2019) evaluated cellular responses of the hepatopancreas detoxification process in invertebrates. Prawn Macrobrachium potiuna were exposed as model invertebrate to various concentration levels of glyphosate‐based herbicides.…”

“…The active ingredient of these herbicides, the glyphosate molecule (N‐(phosphomethyl)glycine), inhibits the enzyme 5‐enolpyruvyl‐3‐phosphate synthase, which is present in the shikimate pathway and is responsible for synthesizing essential aromatic amino acids for plant development 6,7 . Although this enzyme is not found in animals, several studies demonstrate GBH's disruptive potential in non target organisms such as crustaceans (decrease in reproduction), 8,9 annelids (increase of enzyme superoxide dismutase), 10 fish (increase in mortality, decrease in cell viability, inhibited mitochondrial complex enzymatic activity, and ultrastructural changes in the ovarian follicular), 11–13 amphibians (morphogenesis abnormalities, micronuclei formation, and erythrocyte nuclear abnormalities), 14,15 rats (decrease in total counting sperm and the weight of seminal vesicle), 16,17 and humans (sperm motility) 18,19 …”
