It is unclear how fish in freshwater ecosystems are affected by the combined presence of microplastics (MPs) and anionic surfactant detergents. So, our investigations focus on the nephrotoxic effects of both Polyethylene microplastics (PE-MPs) and Sodium lauryl sulfate (SLS) in single or combined exposure on African Catfish (Clarias gariepinus). In the current study, rearing water of catfish (Clarias gariepinus) was ... Read more

Several aquatic arthropodan classes, including Arachnida, Crustacea, and Ostracoda can parasitize on fish and might cause discomfort or serious harm to their tissues. These organisms can parasitize fish through either obligatory, facultative, or opportunistic relationships according to their behavior or the surrounding conditions. Free-living arthropods may be induced to parasitize fish by various physiological, environmental, or biological stimuli. Some other ... Read more
