| two new species of lepeophtheirus (copepoda: caligidae) parasitic on fishes from southern california waters. | two new species of lepeophtheirus are described and illustrated based on a collection from the orange county sewer outfall, california. they are: l. remiopsis sp.nov. from the branchial cavities and external body surfaces of parophrys vetulus girard, hippoglossina stomata eigenmann & eigenmann, pleuronichthys verticalis (jordan & gilbert), chitonotus pugetensis (steindachner), and porichthys notatus (girard); and l. rotundipes sp.nov. from the external body surfaces and occasionally the gill cav ... | 1979 | 481904 |
| analysis of endocrine disruption in southern california coastal fish using an aquatic multispecies microarray. | endocrine disruptors include plasticizers, pesticides, detergents, and pharmaceuticals. turbot and other flatfish are used to characterize the presence of chemicals in the marine environment. unfortunately, there are relatively few genes of turbot and other flatfish in genbank, which limits the use of molecular tools such as microarrays and quantitative reverse-transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (qrt-pcr) to study disruption of endocrine responses in sentinel fish captured by regulatory age ... | 2009 | 19270792 |
| the relationships of biochemical endpoints to histopathology and population metrics in feral flatfish species collected near the municipal wastewater outfall of orange county, california, usa. | in july 2000, 330 individuals of three flatfish species were collected from reference locations and nine sites surrounding the outfall of the orange county (ca, usa) sanitation district (ocsd) municipal wastewater discharge. species included hornyhead turbot (pleuronichthys verticalis), english sole (pleuronectes vetulus), and bigmouth sole (hippoglossina stomata). livers of sampled animals were examined for the expression of vitellogenin (in males), cytochrome p450 1a (cyp1a), and dna damage (c ... | 2003 | 12785589 |
| liver lesions in demersal fishes near a large ocean outfall on the san pedro shelf, california. | the prevalence of toxicopathic liver lesions in demersal fish on the san pedro shelf, california was determined for a 15-year period (1988-2003). fish livers were sampled at fixed locations as part of the orange county sanitation districts (ocsd) ocean monitoring program. histopathological examination of selected fish liver tissues was studied to determine whether the wastewater discharge had affected fish health. the prevalence of toxicopathic lesion classes neoplasms (neo), preneoplastic foci ... | 2008 | 17516140 |
