| haplorchis infections in intermediate hosts from a clonorchiasis endemic area in meinung, taiwan, republic of china. | snails and freshwater fish were examined from four ponds in the meinung township in which clonorchis sinensis was known to be endemic 18 years ago. no metacercariae were found in 478 tilapia nilotica, whereas of 451 ctenopharyngodon idellus examined, 16.2%, 3.3% and 0.9% were found to be infected with haplorchis pumilio, h. taichui and clonorchis sinensis, respectively. in addition, there were some unidentified metacercariae in 12.0% of ctenopharyngodon idellus examined. overall, no positive cor ... | 2002 | 12015833 |
| site-specific water quality criteria for lethal/sublethal protection of freshwater fish exposed to zinc in southern taiwan. | there were considerable concerns about the zinc (zn) pollution caused by electroplating, chemical, and computer-related high-tech industrial discharges in kaohsiung rivers situated at south taiwan. there is, however, a lack of site-specific water chemistry based toxicity assessment and little is known about the sublethal toxicity on freshwater fish. this study proposes an integrated framework to link experimental and mechanistic model-based data analysis of lethal and sublethal zn toxicities for ... | 2016 | 27337432 |

| effects of malachite green on the mrna expression of detoxification-related genes in nile tilapia (oreochromis niloticus) and other major chinese freshwater fishes. | the use of malachite green (mg) in fish farming is prohibited in china due to its potentially toxicological and carcinogenic nature, but it is still illegally used in some places. the aim of this study was to investigate the time and concentration-dependent responses of xenobiotic metabolizing and detoxification-related genes in diverse fishes exposed to mg both in vivo and in vitro. experimental fish were administered to two exposure groups of malachite green (mg) (0.10 and 0.50 mg l⁻¹) for 8 h ... | 2013 | 22052600 |
| acute renal failure due to ingestion of the gallbladder of grass carp: report of 3 cases with review of literature. | gallbladder toxin of the grass carp (ctenopharyngodon idella) is a less well-known cause of acute renal failure. three cases are reported and the diagnosis is primarily clinical. all our patients presented initially with gastrointestinal upset including nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and abdominal fullness. these symptoms usually occurred with 10 min to 18 h after the ingestion the raw gallbladder of the grass carp. all our cases developed acute renal failure and in two of them toxic hepatitises we ... | 1993 | 8290711 |
