Abstract

Resistance of juvenile cobia, Rachycentron canadum, to low salinity, low temperature and high nitrite concentrations was examined under laboratory conditions. After acclimating juveniles to a salinity of 20 g/L (27.3°C), salinity was decreased by 2 g/L/day. The first fish died at a salinity of 8 g/L and 80% offish were dead within 24 hours of exposure to 2 g/L. Acclimation offish to 22.6°C (21 g/L salinity) followed by a temperature reduction of 0.53°C/day resulted in initial mortality at 12.9°C. The median-lethal temperature was 12.1°C and all fish were dead by the time the temperature reached 10.4°C. Fish exposed for 96 hours to nominal ? 32 mg/L nitrite-N survived. Results of this study indicate that cobia juveniles require a salinity and temperature of > 8.0 g/L and > 12.9°C, respectively, and that environmental nitrite should not be deleterious at concentrations normally found in aquaculture systems.  相似文献

Acute toxicity of nitrite to red drum fingerlings was investigated under static conditions in environments containing 36.0 to 0.6 g/L salinity. The 48 h median lethal concentrations ranged from 85.7 mg/L nitrite-N (36.0 g/L salinity) to 2.8 mg/L nitrite-N (0.6 g/L salinity). Plasma nitrite concentrations increased with exposure time during a 48 h study and exceeded environmental concentrations in fish exposed to 9.1 and 5.1 mg/L nitrite-N (1.4 g/L salinity). During 24 h of exposure, methemoglobin levels increased with increasing environmental nitrite conditions in fish exposed to 3, 6 and 9 mg/L nitrite-N for 24 h (1.4 g/L salinity). The chloride component of salinity was not as effective in preventing nitrite toxicity as in other species of fish, indicating a potential problem for the culture of red drum in low-salinity waters.  相似文献

Penaeus setiferus postlarvae were exposed to acute levels of ammonia, nitrite, and to a mixture of both by a short-term static method, The 24h, 48-h and 72-h LC50 values for un-ionized ammonia were 1.49, 1.21 and 1.12 mg/L NH3-N (un-ionized ammonia as nitrogen), and 11.55, 9.38 and 8.69 mg/L ammonia-N (un-ionized plus ionized ammonia as nitrogen). The 24-h, 48-h and 72-h LC50 values for nitrite were 268.06, 248.84 and 167.33 mg/L nitrite-N (nitrite as nitrogen). Nitrite was much less toxic than ammonia. The joint effect of ammonia and nitrite on the postlarvae was synergistic at 48-h exposure and antagonistic after 72 h. Postlarvae of P. setiferus may be considered as organisms sensitive to ammonia and nitrite.  相似文献

The white shrimp Penaeus setiferus is a potential species for culture in the Gulf of Mexico. It has been demonstrated that postlarval P. setiferus is a species sensitive to ammonia and nitrite. In this study, the effect of ammonia and nitrite on the oxygen consumption of Penaeus setiferus postlarvae subjected to different dissolved oxygen concentrations was investigated. Un-ionized ammonia tended to reduce the oxygen consumption of P. setiferus postlarvae. The addition of 0.4 mg/L un-ionized ammonia-N modified the response of the postlarvae to lower dissolved oxygen levels. Exposure to 0.7 mg/L un-ionized ammonia-N caused severe effects on the respiratory rate and it was lethal at low dissolved oxygen concentrations. Nitrite exposure decreased the respiratory rate of post-larvae in high dissolved oxygen concentrations, whereas postlarvae exposed to nitrite under hypoxic conditions showed higher oxygen consumption than unexposed animals. The decreases of the oxygen consumption induced by the interactive effect of ammonia or nitrite and low dissolved oxygen concentration indicate a harmful condition. The results indicate that P. setiferus postlarvae is a sensitive organism to the combined effect of un-ionized ammonia or nitrite and low dissolved oxygen concentrations.  相似文献

Tiger prawn Penaeus monodon postlarvae (PL6) were exposed to a mixture of ammonia and nitrite by the static renewal method. When the toxicity ratio of the ammonia-nitrite mixture was 1:1, the 48 h, 72 h and 96 h LC50 values were 2.20, 1.43 and 0.84 toxicity units which were equivalent to 12.66 mg/L ammonia-N (0.60 mg/L NH3-N) plus 14.91 mg/L nitrite-N, 8.23 mg/L ammonia-N (0.39 mg/L NH3-N) plus 9.69 mg/L nitrite-N, and 4.83 mg/L ammonia-N (0.23 mg/ L NH3-N) plus 5.69 mg/L nitrite-N. When the toxicity ratio of the ammonia-nitrite mixture was 51, the 48 h, 72 h and 96 h LC50 values were 2.50, 1.56 and 0.85 toxicity units which were equivalent to 23.98 mg/L ammonia-N (1.13 mg/L NH3-N) plus 5.65 mg/L nitrite-N; 14.96 mg/L ammonia-N (0.71 mg/L NH3-N) plus 3.52 mg/L nitrite-N, and 8.15 mg/L ammonia-N (0.39 mg/ L NH, N) plus 1.92 mg/L nitrite-N. A mixture of ammonia and nitrite exerted greater toxicity than high concentrations of either ammonia or nitrite alone. The combined effect of ammonia and nitrite on P. monodon postlarvae was antagonistic for 48 and 72 hours exposure, but synergistic after 96 hours exposure.  相似文献

ABSTRACT:   Experiments were conducted to determine the acute tolerance of juvenile (mean weight ± standard error, 9.9 ± 0.9 g) black sea bass Centropristis striata to environmental un-ionized ammonia-nitrogen (NH3-N) and nitrite-nitrogen (NO2-N) exposure at various salinities. Specifically, median lethal concentrations (LC50 values) of NH3-N and NO2-N at 24, 48 and 96 h of exposure were determined at salinities of 10, 20 and 30 g/L at 22°C. With the exception of LC50 values determined at 48 h, median lethal concentrations of NH3-N to black sea bass were not influenced by environmental salinity; 24, 48, and 96 h LC50 values ranged from 0.81 to 0.85, 0.65–0.77, and 0.46–0.54 mg-NH3-N/L, respectively. In contrast, tolerance of black sea bass to environmental NO2-N was compromised at reduced salinities. Median lethal concentrations of NO2-N to fish at 24, 48 and 96 h of exposure ranged from 288.3 to 429.0, 258.4 to 358.8 and 190.0 to 241.9 mg-NO2-N/L, respectively. Results indicate that while juvenile black sea bass are relatively sensitive to acute NH3-N exposure, they are highly resistant to NO2-N exposure.  相似文献

Empirical indications that channel catfish ( Ictalurus punctatus ) may acclimate to environmental nitrite were studied in the laboratory. Channel catfish were exposed to 1.31, 2.49, 4.42 or 6.30 mg/L nitrite-N for 15 days. Methemoglobin concentrations in test fish indicated acclimation occurred in the fish exposed to 2.49 and 4.42 mg/L nitrite-N. Acclimation was not observed in fish exposed to the highest or the lowest concentration of nitrite. Fish exposed to 6.30 mg/L nitrite-N also developed anemia. The results indicate that channel catfish do have the ability to acclimate to nitrite and that this acclimation is concentration and time dependent.  相似文献

Pcnaeus monodon juveniles (35.4 ± 2.2 mm TL) were exposed to seawater (20 ppt) having different concentrations of total ammonia (NH3+ NH,+) and nitrite. Median lethal concentration (LC50) was determined with static-renewal tests. The LC50, of total ammonia-N, NH3-N and niMte-N on shrimps decreased with increase of exposure time. The 24, 48, 72, % and 120 h LC50 were 94.96, 61.09, 47.47 45.58 and 38.00 mg/L total ammonia-N (2.68, 1.73, 135, 1.29 and 1.08 mg/L NH3-N) and 215.85, 185.33, 88.54, 54.76 and 37.97 mg/L nitrite-N, respectively. The 144h LC50 of total ammonia-N and NH3-N was 36.71 mg/L and 1.04 mgL. The "threshold" of ammonia and nitrite was found at 144h and 120h respectively, from the toxicity curve approaching asymptote. A "safe value" was 3.7 mg/L total ammonia-N, 0.1 mg/L NH3-N (20 ppt, pH 7.70, 27C) and 3.8 mg/L nitrite-N for P. monodon juvenile .  相似文献

ABSTRACT

Aquaculture for the purpose of supplementing natural recruitment is one approach used to assist the recovery of endangered fish populations. A common consequence of high-density culture is the accumulation of nitrite in the water. Razorback suckers (Catastomidae; Xyrauchen texanus) survived a 72-hour exposure to 25 mg/L nitrite-N. Bonytails (Cyprinidae; Gila elegans) died within 48 hours of exposure to 10 mg/L and 25 mg/L nitrite-N. A chloride:nitrite ratio of 5 (as either calcium chloride or sodium chloride) protected bonytail from nitrite toxicity. This study provides some basic knowledge that can be applied to the culture of these two endangered species and raises some interesting questions about the nature of nitrite toxicity and inhibition of toxicity in these two species.  相似文献

The effects of ammonia and nitrite on vigour, survival rate, moulting rate of zoea of blue swimming crab, Portunus pelagicus, were studied. A total of five nitrite-N treatments (26.67, 53.34, 106.68, 213.36, 426.72 mg/l) and a control (no nitrite-N added) were set up for the acute nitrite-N toxicity experiment; a total of five ammonia-N treatments (8.43, 16.86, 33.72, 67.44, 134.88 mg/l) and a control (no ammonia-N added) were set up for the acute ammonia-N toxicity experiment. The results showed that the vigour, survival rate and moulting rate of zoea of the blue swimming crabs exposed to over 53.34 mg/l were significantly different (P < 0.05) from the control group. The zoea LC50 values (mg/l) of nitrite-N were 179.47, 76.56, 66.70, 37.49, 25.01, 25.35, 25.34 mg/l for 24, 36, 48, 60, 72, 84, 96 h, respectively. The vigour, survival rate and moulting rate of zoea of the blue swimming crabs exposed to over 16.86 mg/l were significantly different (P < 0.05) from the control group. The zoea LC50 values (mg/l) of ammonia-N were 51.04, 39.62, 38.72, 24.43, 16.90, 13.42, 11.16 mg/l for 24, 36, 48, 60, 72, 84, 96 h, respectively. The zoeae are highly sensitive to ammonia and nitrite, and the toxicity of ammonia and nitrite on Portunus pelagicus decrease with development of this crab.  相似文献

The uptake, depuration and toxicity of environmental nitrite was characterized in Litopenaeus vannamei exposed in water containing low concentrations of artificial sea salt or mixed salts. In 2 g/L artificial sea salts, nitrite was concentrated in the hemolymph in a dose-dependent and rapid manner (steady-state in about 2 d). When exposed to nitrite in 2 g/L artificial sea salts for 4 d and then moved to a similar environment without added nitrite, complete depuration occurred within a day. Increasing salinity up to 10 g/L decreased uptake of environmental nitrite. Nitrite uptake in environments containing 2 g/L mixed salts (combination of sodium, potassium, calcium and magnesium chlorides) was similar to or lower than rates in 2 g/L artificial sea salt. Toxicity was inversely related to total dissolved salt and chloride concentrations and was highest in 2 g/L artificial sea salt (96-h medial lethal concentration = 8.4 mg/L nitrite-N). Animals that molted during the experiments did not appear to be more susceptible to nitrite than animals that did not molt. The shallow slope of the curve describing the relationship between toxicity and salinity suggests that management of nitrite toxicity in low-salinity shrimp ponds by addition of more salts may not be practical.  相似文献

将奥尼罗非鱼（Oreochromis niloticus× O. areus）幼鱼暴露于不同质量浓度（0、2.5 mg·L -1、5 mg·L -1、10 mg ·L -1和20 mg·L -1）的氨氮溶液中,于第0、第12、第24、第48和第72小时测定其非特异性免疫相关指标。结果表明,试验幼鱼经氨氮胁迫后各试验组血清溶菌酶活力随着胁迫时间的延长下降显著（P ﹤0.05）。氨氮胁迫明显影响鱼肝脏总抗氧化能力（T-AOC）及相关抗氧化酶活力。与对照组相比,随胁迫时间增加各试验组肝脏 T-AOC 及总超氧化物歧化酶（T-SOD）活力均先下降后上升（P ﹤0.05）。过氧化氢酶（CAT）及谷胱甘肽过氧化物酶（GSH-Px）活力变化还与胁迫溶液浓度相关。低浓度组（2.5 mg·L -1和5 mg·L -1）,CAT 活力在胁迫24 h 后显著下降（P ﹤0.05）;高浓度组（10 mg·L -1和20 mg·L -1）,CAT 活力却出现先升高后降低的变化。除最高浓度组,各试验组 GSH-Px 活力表现为诱导效应（P ﹤0.05）。试验条件下氨氮胁迫对罗非鱼非特异性免疫产生明显影响,且随浓度增加及时间延长影响程度加大。  相似文献

Juvenile and adult black sea bass (Centropristis striata L.) were exposed to various concentrations of four anaesthetics to determine practical dosages for handling as well as for procedures such as bleeding, ovarian biopsy or tag implantation. In experiment 1, juveniles exposed to either 2.0 mg L?1 metomidate, 15 mg L?1 clove oil, 70 mg L?1 tricaine methanesulphonate (TMS) or 200 mg L?1 2‐phenoxyethanol (2‐PE) reached stage II of anaesthesia in 3–5 min and could be handled for weighing and measuring. All fish had completed recovery to stage III within 6 min. In experiment 2, the established concentrations of each anaesthetic were tested on juveniles to determine their ability to prevent a reflex to a subcutaneous needle puncture. All of the fish exposed to clove oil (20 mg L?1) and 40% of the TMS‐treated (70 mg L?1) fish reacted while none of the fish anaesthetized in metomidate (2.0 mg L?1) or 2‐PE (200 mg L?1) responded to the needle puncture. In experiment 3, metomidate (5.0 mg L?1), clove oil (30 mg L?1) TMS (125 mg L?1) or 2‐PE (300 mg L?1) were all effective for performing an ovarian biopsy or tag implantation on adults. In experiment 4, TMS (125 mg L?1) exacerbated the cortisol response to a short handling stressor during a 30 min exposure. Fish anaesthetized in 2‐PE (300 mg L?1), metomidate (5.0 mg L?1) or clove oil (40 mg L?1) had increased cortisol levels associated with the handling stressor but there were no further increases during the remainder of the experimental period. The results demonstrate that these anaesthetics are effective for sedation and anaesthesia of black sea bass and that the best choice is dependant upon the procedures to be performed.  相似文献

Sea bass, Lates calcarifer, fingerlings were acclimated to 0. 15, and 32 ppt, and the toxic effects of nitrite exposure were assessed. The 96-hour median lethal concentrations (96-hour LC50 for nitrite were estimated to be 14.5 mg/L at 0 ppt, 105 mg/L at 15 ppt and 93 mg/L at 32 ppt salinity. Chronic exposure to a nitrite concentration equivalent to 10% of the respective 96 hour LC50 resulted in marked growth reduction: growth being reduced in the order of 0 ppt > 32 ppt > 15 ppt. In nitrite-free water, growth rate for fish raised at a salinity of 15 ppt was higher compared to fish raised at salinities of 0 ppt and 32 ppt, a phenomenon which probably reflected the advantage of a reduction in osmoregulatory work in an iso-osmotic environment.  相似文献

Bioassays in static water (mean ± SD; temperature, 20–22 C; pH, 8.2–8.4; alkalinity, 205 ± 10 mg/L CaCO3; total hardness, 220 ± 10 mg/L CaCO3) were used to determine median lethal concentrations (LC50) of un-ionized ammonia (NH3-N) for striped bass Moronc saxatilis and hybrid striped bass M. saxatilis × M. chrysops. The 96 h LC50 for striped bass was 1.01 ± 0.24 mg/L NH3-N3 and was significantly higher than the LC50 for hybrid striped bass (0.64 ± 0.05 mg/L NH3-N). The effects of sublethal ammonia were evaluated after fish were exposed for 96 h to 0.0, 0.25, or 0.5 mg/L NH3-N or to additional exposure to oxygen depleted water (about 2.0 mg O2/L). Plasma ammonia of striped hass did not change as sublethal ammonia increased, but exposure to oxygen depletion caused a decrease in plasma ammonia. In contrast, plasma ammonia of hybrid striped bass increased as environmental ammonia increased, and increased further after exposure to oxygen depletion. Plasma cortisol levels of striped bass were significantly higher and more variable than cortisol levels of hybrid striped bass; additional exposure to oxygen depletion increased this variability, but these responses may be due to the stress of handling and confinement. Mean differences also existed between species for hemoglobin and hematocrit, while differences in variability occurred for osmolality and oxygen depletion rates. Striped bass tolerated ammonia better than hybrid striped bass but were more susceptible than hybrid striped bass to the additional stress of oxygen depletion. Most changes in physiological characteristics were relatively independent of environmental ammonia, but they were affected by oxygen depletion challenge.  相似文献

A feeding trial was conducted in a recirculating system to determine the dietary protein requirement for juvenile black sea bass. Six isocaloric diets were formulated to contain varying levels of crude protein (CP) ranging from 36 to 56% (36, 40, 44, 48, 52, and 56%) by substituting a mixture of carbohydrates and lipid for fish meal. The feeding experiment was carried out in 18‐75 L aquaria stocked at a density of 15 juveniles (initial average weight 6.7 g) per tank. Fish were fed test diets in triplicate tanks to apparent satiation twice a day for 8 wk. Whole‐body proximate composition was analyzed after the feeding trial. After the feeding trial, weight gain and specific growth rate of fish fed the 44% CP diet were not significantly different from those fed the 48, 52, and 56% CP diets, but were significantly higher (P < 0.05) than those fed the 36 and 40% CP diets. Feed conversion efficiency and protein efficiency ratio were significantly affected by dietary protein level. The dietary requirement of protein for maximum growth of black sea bass juveniles, estimated using broken‐line regression analysis on weight gain, was 45.3% and maximum weight gain occurred at 52.6% based on polynomial regression analysis.  相似文献

Litopenaeus schmitti juveniles (total length 15 ± 0.4 cm) were exposed to different concentrations of nitrite using the static renewal method at different salinity levels (5‰, 20‰ and 35‰) at pH 8.0 and 20 °C. The 24, 48, 72 and 96 h LC50 values of nitrite in L. schmitti juveniles were 40.72, 32.63, 24.63, and 19.12 mg L−1 at 5‰; 53.52, 38.60, 27.76, 25.55 mg L−1 at 20‰; 54.32, 47.87, 41.67 and 38.88 mg L−1 at 35‰ salinity. As the salinity decreased from 35‰ to 5‰, susceptibility to nitrite increased by 33.4%, 46.7%, 69.2% and 103.3%, after 24, 48, 72 and 96 h of exposure respectively. Furthermore, we found that exposure of shrimp to nitrite caused an increase in oxygen consumption by 137.3%, 99.2% and 81.4% and an increase in the ammonia excretion level by 112.5%, 87% and 64.3% with respect to the control with decreasing salinity levels.  相似文献

Abstract. Tiger shrimp, Penaeus monodon Fabricius, post-larvae (32·0±3mg, 1·43±0·03 cm) were exposed to control, 0·12, 0·60, 1·20 and 2·40mg/l ammonia-N (un-ionized plus ionized ammonia as nitrogen) which is equivalent to control, 6,32,63 and 126μg/1 NH3-N (un-ionized ammonia as nitrogen) for 8 weeks in 25 ppt, as pH of 7·85–8·18 and 26–28°C by static renewal method. Growth in weight and length of the shrimps exposed to 1·20 and 2·40 mg/l ammonia-N were significantly lower (P < 0·05) than those exposed to control. The EC50 (concentration that reduced growth by 50% of that of the controls) was 1·33 mg/l ammonia-N, 70 μg/l NH3-N for weight gain, and 2·35 mg/1 ammonia-N, 123μg/l NH3-N for length gain of P. monodon post-larvae. The'maximum acceptable toxicant concentration'(MATC) of ammonia-N and NH3-N for P. monodon post-larvae was 0·60mg/l and 32μg/l, respectively after 6 weeks of exposure.  相似文献

Abstract.— The present study investigated the use of benzocaine as an anesthetic for juvenile Colossoma macropomum (tambaqui). In the first experiment, fish were exposed to various doses of benzocaine for 10 min at 24 C. The second experiment examined the effects of duration of exposure to 100 mg/L of benzocaine. In the third experiment, fish were exposed to 100 mg/L at temperatures of 24, 27, and 30 C. Benzocaine concentrations of 100–150 mg/L were considered ideal for quickly inducing total immobilization and fast recovery. Fish exposed to 350 mg/L benzocaine exhibited 30% mortality. No changes in hemat-ocrit were recorded in fish exposed to different concentrations of benzocaine. Plasma glucose increased significantly when fish were exposed to benzocaine concentrations greater than 200 mg/L. Recovery time after a 30-min exposure to 100 mg/L benzocaine was significantly greater than after an exposure for 10 and 20 min. No mortality was observed 96 h after exposure to 100 mg/L benzocaine for 10, 20, and 30 min. Dosages in the 100–150 mg/L range were effective for periods of up to 20 min of anesthesia. There was no effect of temperature on the time required for fish to lose equilibrium. However, recovery was significantly faster for fish anesthetized at 30 C. Benzocaine is an effective anesthetic agent for tambaqui juveniles, providing rapid immobilization and rapid recovery. Benzocaine is also less expensive than other available anesthetic compounds.  相似文献
