The effect of water‐soluble aromatic hydrocarbons on some haematological parameters of rainbow trout, Salmo gairdneri Richardson, during acute exposure

Abstract: Rainbow trout were exposed to a model mixture of water-soluble aromatic hydrocarbons (AH) at concentrations of0.3-15.2 ppm for periods of 1-72 h. None of the parameters monitored except RBC changed at 0.3 ppm AH, while all constituents, except blood glucose, changed at 7.2 ppm AH. At 15.2 ppm, all fish died within I h. Haematological changes included increased haematocrit, haemoglobin concentration, erythrocyte counts, and blood clotting (prothrombin) times. Plasma CI-concentration decreased significantly.

“…De este modo, las variaciones de los parámetros hematológicos como hematocrito, leucocrito, recuentos celulares y concentración de hemoglobina pueden, entre otros, ser utilizados como indicadores de contaminación (Zbanyszek & Smith 1984, Hantonella 1998, Whali 2002. A su vez, los parámetros hematológicos están siendo utilizados como indicadores fisiológicos de disfunción orgá-nica por estrés (Wedemeyer et al 1990).…”

“…Petroleum hydrocarbons have been reported to increase plasma glucose in various fish species (DiMichele and Taylor, 1978;Thomas et al 1980;Zbanyszek and Smith, 1984;Aabel and Jarvi, 1990;AlKindi et al 1996), with dose-related responses in mullets exposed to the WSF of fuel oil (Thomas et al 1980). However, rainbow trout exposed to bunker C oil showed an unusual decrease in blood glucose concentrations which was attributed to a malfunction of glucose reabsorption by the renal tubules March, 1977, 1978).…”

“…Hematocrit initially increased after exposure of flounder to a 50% dilution of the WSF of Omani crude oil (AlKindi et al 1996), dab and English sole to oil-contaminated sediment (McCain et al 1978;Tahir et al 1993), Pacific staghorn sculpin to petroleum refinery wastewater (Boese et al 1982) and Antarctic fish (Pagothenia borchgrevinki) to fuel oil (Davison et al 1992(Davison et al , 1993. Similarly, hemoglobin concentrations were increased in rainbow trout exposed to the WSF of a mixture of aromatic hydrocarbons (Zbanyszek and Smith, 1984), and in Atlantic salmon exposed to an oil slick, and in English sole exposed to oil-contaminated sediment (McCain et al 1978). However, hematocrit was decreased in sculpin exposed to petroleum hydrocarbons (DeVries, 1977).…”
