Toxicology of Fishes 2nd Edition

Toxicology of Fishes 2nd Edition

Toxicology of Fishes 2nd Edition is a comprehensive reference work designed to explore the complex relationship between aquatic life and environmental pollution. Covering both freshwater fishes and marine fishes, the book highlights how fish species, which represent nearly half of all vertebrates, act as important model organisms in the study of environmental contamination and adverse outcomes caused by chemical exposure.

This edition integrates insights from analytical sciences, biochemical sciences, and genomic sciences, offering readers a clear understanding of processes like toxicokinetic in fishes, biotransformation, and the role of reactive oxygen species in oxidative stress. It also addresses the impacts of microplastics, pharmaceuticals, oil spills, and pesticides, making it an essential resource for understanding the challenges facing aquatic ecosystems and fisheries.

The book combines detailed laboratory studies and field studies with a focus on target organ systems including the nervous system and immune system, and it explains mechanisms such as resistance to chemical toxicity. It also delves into modern concepts like epigenetics, proteomics, metabolomics, multi transgenerational effects, and adverse outcome pathways. With its rich use of illustrations and tables, this text supports both exam preparation and research in aquatic toxicology, ecotoxicology, and environmental health.
