TI  - Hematological Alterations in Common Carp (Cyprinus carpio L.) Exposed to 
      Herbicides: Pendimethalin and Ethofumesate Tested Separately and in Mixture.
PG  - 167-74
AB  - Herbicides are used in large amounts in agriculture and the evaluation of their 
      toxic effects is of major concern to environmental safety. The aim of the present 
      study was to investigate common carp hematological alterations caused by 
      herbicide exposure. Fish were treated with pendimethalin and ethofumesate tested 
      separately and in mixture administered to aquarium water. Peripheral blood of 
      treated fish was collected after 1, 3 and 7 days of exposure and compared to 
      control. The total number of erythrocytes (RBC), total number of leukocytes 
      (WBC), hematocrit value (Hct), total hemoglobin concentration (Hb), mean 
      corpuscular hemoglobin (MCH), mean corpuscular volume (MCV), mean corpuscular 
      hemoglobin concentration (MCHC) and leukograms were determined at once. The 
      results indicate that herbicide exposure caused different changes in the 
      hematological profile of the fish. In the case of exposure to individual 
      herbicides, short-term fluctuations of various hematological indices were noted. 
      Moreover, a significant increase in RBC and Hct after a short period of exposure 
      (1-3 days) in fish exposed simultaneously to both tested herbicides was observed. 
      Exposure to herbicides affected the leukocyte profile after 3 and 7 days of 
      duration. Fluctuations of hematological parameters are a typical change in fish 
      exposed to pesticides.
