“…However, seminal cholesterol level increased in the wastewater treatments compared to the control. This is not in agreement with the result obtained in C. gariepinus maintained in cadmium contaminated water for a period of 14 days (Samuel et al, 2017). The significant increase between treatment groups in glucose concentrations may be considered to be the manifestation of stress condition probably due to the toxic nature of the textile waste water.…”

This study was prompted by an earlier study that revealed the absence of gonads in all fish species caught around the Itoku tributary of the Ogun River, an area known for active textile activities. Thus, this study investigated the effect of textile wastewater on reproduction biomarkers in African catfish broodstock. Male and female broodstock were exposed to varying pre-determined concentrations (0ppb-T0, 0.5ppb-T1, 0.35ppb-T2, 2ppb-T3) of the textile wastewater for a period of 96 hours. Water quality parameters, seminal/ovarian hormones, metabolites, ions, oxidative, enzymes, and sperm viability were assayed. The water quality parameters of the wastewater indicated varying degrees of physical and chemical pollution. The values of hormones were significantly different (p<0.05) although a trend was not observed. Prolactin, however, showed a marked difference statistically across the treatments in the male broodstock while a reverse trend was observed in the female broodstock. The values recorded for seminal metabolites increased significantly compared to the control except for T3 for cholesterol and T1 glucose which were significantly lower than the control. In the female broodstock, the values for glucose and creatinine significantly increased compared to the control. Seminal ions evaluated showed significant differences across treatments. Except for T1, there was a significant reduction observed in the values of sodium, chloride, and calcium compared to the control. For ovarian ions, a significant increase was recorded across the treatments compared to the control. However, sodium recorded a significant decrease compared to the control except for T3 where the value was higher than the control. In the male broodstock, aspartate aminotransferase and alanine aminotransferase values were significantly lower compared to control while an opposite trend was observed in the female broodstock. The concentration of sperm and life- to-death ratio significantly reduced across treatments compared to the control. These results indicate that the textile wastewater altered the reproduction biomarkers in the male and female broodstock. The implication of this is that reproduction in fish might become a challenge in textile wastewater polluted Itoku tributary of the Ogun River.

“…Cholesterol level, in the current study, decreased in Cd 10% and Cd 30% compared to the control group. Similar results were found with Clarias garaiepinus that maintained in cadmiumcontaminated water for a period of 14 days (Samuel et al, 2017). Also, Clarias batrachus showed decreased level of cholesterol after exposure to 1 mg/l of CdSO 4 compared to the control group (Kumar, 2016).…”

This study aimed to determine the effects of sub-lethal concentrations of cadmium (CdCl 2) on some haematological and biochemical parameters in 172 specimens of Clarias gariepinus. Fishes were captured from Manzala Lake, Egypt. They were acclimatized and fed with commercial fish diet for one month before starting the experiment. After determination of LC50, Two experimental groups were exposed to two sub-lethal concentrations (10% and 30% of LC 50) of cadmium chloride along with control group. Fishes from different experimental groups were sacrificed after 60 days of exposure. Haematological parameters including erythrocytes, Hb, PCV, thrombocyte, leucocytes, and differential count of WBCs were estimated. Also, some biochemical parameters such as sodium, potassium, calcium, glucose, total protein, albumin, AST, ALT, ammonia, urea, uric acid, total bilirubin, creatinine, total lipids, cholesterol, triglycerides and cortisol and oxidative stress enzymes such as GSH, CAT, SOD, and MDA were measured. Group treated with 10 % of LC 50 of Cd showed significantly lower concentrations of Hb, thrombocytes and SOD activity and significantly higher concentrations of eosinophil, MDA, and triglyceride. On the other hand, group of 30 LC 50 of Cd showed a significantly lower concentration of sodium and significantly higher activities of CAT, ALT and ammonia concentrations. The investigated two sub-lethal concentration (10 % and 30% of LC 50 of Cd) groups showed a significantly lower activity of GSH and lower concentrations of potassium and cholesterol, besides these showed a significantly higher concentrations of uric acid and creatinine. Serum calcium, glucose, albumin, AST, urea and total lipids did not show any significant differences in the estimated treatment concentrations.

“…Similarly, Clarias batrachu exhibited elevated creatinine levels when exposed to 2.5 ppm cadmium, this elevated creatinine levels may indicate that cadmium is a nephrotoxic metal to fishes which cause kidney dysfunction.. Cholesterol level, in the current study, decreased in Cd 10% and Cd 30% compared to the control group. Similar results were found with Clarias garaiepinus that maintained in cadmiumcontaminated water for a period of 14 days (Samuel et al, 2017). Also, Clarias batrachus showed decreased level of cholesterol after exposure to 1 mg/l of CdSO 4 compared to the control group (Kumar, 2016).…”
