“…Biomarkers of exposure include metals in the biological matrices, such as toenails, bone, hair, urine, blood, exhaled breath condensate, fish otoliths [ear bones], and scales [ 17 , 45 , 46 , 47 , 48 , 49 , 50 , 51 , 52 , 53 ], with REE signatures being detected in penguin feathers [ 54 ]. Molecular initiating events occur when a compound and biomolecule or biosystem interact.…”

Emerging and low-carbon technologies and innovations are driving a need for domestic sources, sustainable use, and availability of critical minerals (CMs)—those vital to the national and economic security of the United States. Understanding the known and potential health effects of exposures to such mineral commodities can inform prudent and environmentally responsible handling and harvesting. We review the occurrence, use, predominant exposure pathways, and adverse outcome pathways (AOP) for human and fish receptors of those CMs that are nutritionally essential trace metals (specifically, cobalt, chromium, manganese, nickel, and zinc), as well as the rare earth elements. Biological responses to some elements having comparable biogeochemistry can sometimes be similar. Candidate quantifiable biomarkers for assessing potential AOP are conveyed.

“…This is due to a lack of distinguishable annuli, as growth increments can become indiscernible through resorption and reformation, or erosion at the edge of the scale (Buckmeier et al 2017). Whitledge et al (2022) estimated the ages of wild Black Carp in the Mississippi River through annual formation of growth increments from a suite of fin rays and vertebrae. Lapilli otoliths were used for stable isotope and microchemistry analyses to determine natal origin in this study and were therefore unavailable for comparison.…”

“…Structures including scales, otoliths, vertebrae, fin rays, and spines have been compared for numerous fish species to identify methods of age estimation that reduce processing time and provide consistent or precise results among readers (Sylvester and Berry 2006;Spiegel et al 2010;Seibert and Phelps 2013;Klein et al 2017;Quist et al 2022). Black Carp Mylopharyngodon piceus is an emerging invasive species in North America with a reproducing population in the Mississippi River represented by several cohorts of wild origin fish (Whitledge et al 2022). Black Carp are a benthic invertivore (Poulton et al 2019) with specially adapted molariform teeth for consumption of hard-shelled mollusk prey (Nico et al 2005).…”

ObjectiveBlack Carp Mylopharyngodon piceus is an emerging invasive species in North America with an expanding population in the Mississippi River basin. Current aging methods use a suite of structures for age estimation, and a single structure is needed to minimize processing time, to maximize consistency of age and growth measurements, and to allow for back‐calculation of individual fish length at age.MethodsIn total, 236 Black Carp were collected throughout the year from 2017 to 2019 through incidental captures by commercial fishers and biologists. In a subsample, 119 Black Carp from 429 to 1268 mm total length were compared for the precision of annuli counts by two experienced readers for the two anterior pectoral fin rays, the anterior dorsal fin ray, sectioned vertebrae, and lapilli otoliths based on percent exact agreement (PA), percent agreement within 1 year (PA ± 1), coefficient of variation (CV), and bubble plots. Consensus annuli counts were compared by PA and CV between structures. We applied annuli counts, as opposed to age, as fish were collected during all seasons and structures were examined independently by readers without knowledge of capture date.ResultVertebrae and dorsal rays had the highest PA between readers. Dorsal ray had the lowest CV and higher PA ± 1. Pectoral rays and lapilli otoliths had the lowest PA. Between‐structure consensus annuli counts indicated that pectoral rays and the dorsal ray annuli counts were the most similar (PA >70% and CV <12) and lapilli otoliths were the most dissimilar (PA >35% and CV >24). Reader‐reported confidence was highest for vertebrae, then in decreasing order, dorsal ray, pectoral rays, and lapilli otoliths. Lumens were present in all fin rays with only minor effects observed on annuli counts, aside from the anterior‐most pectoral fin ray, in which lumens obscured the presence of one or more potential annuli in 61% of structures.ConclusionThe dorsal ray had the highest agreement between readers, with agreement with ±1 year at 98%; the structure can be efficiently extracted and processed, and the structure's morphology and growth pattern are conducive to aging older fish. Vertebrae had high agreement between readers, but a systematic pattern of double bands in vertebrae increased the between‐reader variation in older fish as the interannual growth pattern compressed the viewable area; this was identified by readers based on aging criteria and highlights the need for training novice readers. Validation of annual growth in the tested suite of structures is still needed.
