Synergistic effect of mercury and chromium on the histology and physiology of fish, Tilapia mossambica (Peters, 1852) and Lates calcarifer Calcarifer (Bloch, 1790)

Abstract: Fingerlings of estuarine fishes, Tilapia mossambica and Lates calcarifer were exposed to sub-lethal concentration of mercury and chromium (2.8 ppm) for a period of 28 days. When these fish were exposed to metals concentration, severe gills alterations were observed. But the alteration was less in fish T. mossambica when compared to that of L. calcarife. The fish L. calcarifer exposed to mercury plus chromium, showed lifting up of the epithelium, swelling, hyperplasia, hypertrophy, proliferation of chloride cel… Show more

“…Other metals/metalloids shown to have synergistic and/or antagonistic relationship with Hg include -Cr: e.g., synergistic action with Hg on fish (See: Selvan et al, 2012;Dwivedi et al, 2012); As: e.g., synergistic action in attenuating canonical and noncanonical NLRP3 inflammasome activation (See: Ahn et al, 2018); Pb: combined exposure (synergism) to Pb, inorganic Hg and MeHg showing deviation from additivity for cardiovascular toxicity in rats (See: Dwivedi et al, 2012) and Ni: synergistic effect of Ni and Hg on fatty acid composition in the muscle of fish Lates calcarifer (See: Senthamilselvan et al, 2016).…”
