Histopathological biomarkers and genotoxicity in gill and liver tissues of Nile tilapiaOreochromis niloticusfrom a polluted part of the Nile River, Egypt

Abstract: Fish health is affected by water pollution. Oreochromis niloticus collected during summer 2014 from El-Serw, a polluted site on the Nile River, were compared with fish from a reference site, El-Zamalek. Histopathological changes were detected in gill and liver tissue samples using light and electron microscopy. In addition, the degree of DNA damage was measured using the comet assay. To indicate the severity of water pollution at the two sites, physico-chemical properties and heavy metal concentrations were in… Show more

“…Common alterations included, lifting of lamellae epithelium, hyperplasia of epithelial cells, hypertrophy of chloride cells, oedema, necrosis, formation venous sinus, fusion of secondary lamellae, curling of secondary lamellae, dilation of lamellar capillaries, clavate lamellae, atrophy of secondary gills lamellae, proliferation of cartilage tissue in primary lamellae (Table 1). These findings are comparable to those reported in other studies across the globe (Baiomy, 2016;Javed et al, 2017;Abiona et al, 2019;Lebepe et al, 2020).…”

“…6 that the tested bacteria Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus faecalis, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa show higher efficacy than the other tested bacteria. When the studied material was added to the tested microorganisms, the cell membrane of the bacteria was disrupted [39][40][41][42][43][44][45][46][47] due to the presence of toxic silver and chromium ions. Adding Ag 0.5 Cr 2.5 O 4 nanoparticles, on the other hand, had no impact on fungal germs.…”
