Influence of Different Levels of Cyanazine on Blood Picture of Labeo rohita
Summary
This paper is not about microplastics; it studies the hematological effects of the herbicide cyanazine on freshwater fish Labeo rohita.
The freshwater fish Labeo rohita is found in Asian countries and around the world. Cyanazine herbicide produce extensive threat to freshwater fishes and used to control annual grasses and broadleaf weeds. Subsequently, freshwater ecosystem was facing potential risk due to extensive application of this herbicide. Objective: To find the toxic effects of cyanazine on hematological parameters of Labeo rohita. Methods: For this purpose, fish was divided into four groups. Ten fish were introduced into each group. The group 1 was taken as control group. The group 2, 3 and 4 were treated groups and exposed to different concentration of cyanazine 3µgL-1, 6µgL-1 and 8µgL-1 respectively. Results: The current study showed that WBC, RBC, HGB and HCT increased while the MCV, MCH, MCHC and PLT decreased significantly. Conclusions: Hematological parameters of L. rohita were significantly affected by exposure to Cyanazine. These alterations indicate that Cyanazine can potentially disrupt the fish's hematological balance, which could have implications for its overall healt

Exposure to Acute Concentration of Malathion Induced Behavioral, Hematological, and Biochemical Toxicities in the Brain of Labeo rohita
Researchers exposed Labeo rohita fish to acute concentrations of the pesticide malathion and measured toxic effects on blood chemistry and brain biochemistry. While this study focuses on pesticide toxicity rather than microplastics directly, it demonstrates how chemical pollutants found alongside microplastics in waterways can harm aquatic organisms. The findings showed significant disruption of brain enzymes and blood parameters, highlighting the vulnerability of commercially important fish to agricultural runoff.
Microplastic Bioaccumulation and its Systemic Effects in Labeo rohita: From Cellular Damage to Behavioural Disruption
Rohu carp (Labeo rohita) exposed to polyethylene microplastics at up to 5 mg/L for 60 days accumulated particles in gills, liver, and intestines with dose-dependent cellular damage, behavioral disruption, and partial recovery after 30 days in clean water.
Polystyrene microplastics exposure in freshwater fish, Labeo rohita: evaluation of physiology and histopathology
Researchers fed freshwater fish varying levels of polystyrene microplastics for 90 days and found dose-dependent damage to blood health, growth, and organ tissues. Higher microplastic concentrations caused more severe harm to the liver, kidneys, gills, and intestines. The study highlights that microplastics in freshwater systems can accumulate in fish and cause significant health problems, raising concerns about food safety for communities that rely on freshwater fish.
Impact of Microplastics and Heavy Metals on Fish Health in the Kathajodi River, Odisha, India: A Micronucleus and Hematological Study
Fish from the Kathajodi River, Odisha showed hematological changes and elevated micronucleus frequencies linked to combined exposure to microplastics and heavy metals, indicating genotoxic stress from water pollution in this highly contaminated river.
Chronic Toxicity of Microplastics on Fish (Labeo rohita) and Their Impact on the Freshwater Ecosystem: A Case Study of Gangasagar Pond, Darbhanga, India
Researchers investigated microplastic contamination in Gangasagar Pond in India, finding fibers as the most common type, primarily from domestic waste and discarded packaging. Fish in the pond showed microplastics lodged in their gill chambers and mouths, and tissue analysis revealed damage to the stomach and intestines. The study suggests that microplastic pollution in freshwater ecosystems can directly harm fish health through ingestion and physical contact.
