Neurotoxicological Effects of Municipal Effluents in Fathead Minnow Pimephale Promelas

Abstract: Municipal effluents are known to be able of disrupting neuro-endocrine signaling pathways in oviparous organisms. The purpose of this study was to examine the neurotoxicity of a chemically-treated municipal effluent to adult fathead minnow (Pimephales promelas) after 21 days. Brain somatic index and lipid peroxidation (LPO), monoamine oxidase (MAO) and acetylcholinesterase (AChE) levels were determined in both male and female fish. The estrogenicity of the municipal effluent was confirmed by measuring vitellog… Show more
