“…In the present study, the highest Zn concentrations were obtained in liver, followed by the cartilage and serum. These results in agreement with those of other studies concerning the differences between trace metal concentrations in fish tissues (Allen‐Gil & Martynov, ; Gilbert et al., ; Kalisinska, Salicki, Kavetska, & Ligock, ; Papagiannis et al., ) may be explained by the fact that liver is the major organ involved in xenobiotic metabolism of most vertebrates like fish (Kittler, Hurtaud‐Pessel, Maul, Kolrep, & Fessard, ; Maradonna et al., ; Tabassum et al., ). Aquatic organisms normally bound the trace elements in their liver through cysteine‐rich proteins known as metallothioneins, the ubiquitous low molecular polypeptides which play important roles in the homeostasis, storage, transport and metabolism of essential trace metals like Zn (Do Carmo et al., ; Falfushynska et al., ; Lin et al., ).…”

This study conducted to evaluate the effect of dietary zinc (Zn) levels on feed utilization, tissue Zn composition and serum enzyme activities of juvenile Siberian sturgeon, Acipenser baerii. Five isoenergetic and isonitrogenous semi‐purified diets were formulated with increasing Zn sulphate (ZnSO4.5H2O) level to provide the actual Zn values of 14.7 (control), 20.8, 27.3, 37.7 and 46.4 mg/kg diet. Each diet was assigned to three groups of 20 experimental Siberian sturgeons with uniform size (initial weight of 26.52 ± 0.94 g) for a period of 8‐week feeding trial. Results showed that growth performance and muscle protein content were significantly increased with increasing dietary Zn level up to 27.3 mg/kg (p < .05), beyond which they remained significantly unchanged (p > .05). Muscle lipid content significantly declined with increasing dietary Zn level. While muscle and serum Zn contents were not significantly changed among treatments (p > .05), liver Zn content tended to rise with increasing dietary Zn supplementation. Alkaline phosphatase, superoxide dismutase and glutathione peroxidase activities were also raised with increasing dietary Zn level. The adequate amount of dietary Zn requirements for the Siberian sturgeon was estimated to be 28.24 mg/kg based on the relative growth rate and 34.60 mg/kg based on the liver Zn content.

“…This indicates that low-dose pendimethalin does not reach the critical toxicity level for inducing ginger response, but under PM4, ginger begins to respond to the toxicity of pendimethalin, and the ROS produced is closely related to the closure of ginger stomata. Similar studies have shown that pendimethalin induced the production of ROS [46,2].…”

BackgroundEnvironmental health and food safety issues potentially caused by the dinitroaniline herbicide pendimethalin are a worldwide concern. Due to its importance for crop plants, the determination of possible toxicity and accumulation characteristics of pendimethalin in ginger should be determined. ResultsThe toxicity response of ginger and tissue accumulation effects of pendimethalin on ginger biomass were studied by utilizing pendimethalin in a dose-response study. No significant effect on ginger biomass is observed when the concentration of pendimethalin used is less than 6.7 ppm, while > 10 ppm pendimethalin significantly reduces the biomass of ginger. This is attributed to root damage. The net photosynthetic rate of ginger when treated with 16.7 ppm pendimethalin is 11.37% lower than that of the control organisms, which is mainly caused by stomatal limitation. In addition, high-dose pendimethalin (16.7 ppm) causes the accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in ginger. The activity of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and peroxidase increases accordingly, maintaining the dynamic balance of ROS content. There is no significant effect on malondialdehyde levels or on membrane permeability. Pendimethalin has no significant effect on the expression of ginger α-tubulin mRNA. The damage of high-dose (16.7 ppm) pendimethalin to ginger is mainly caused by oxidative stress. Pendimethalin is significantly accumulated in ginger roots, but not rhizomes. ConclusionsBecause of this, application of pendimethalin to treat weeds in ginger fields may not pose a threat to human health.
