The warm-cold seasonally samplings were carried out over the stations of Zayandeh-Roud River in Safi'eh, Isfahan province, during 2014.  The warm and cold seasonal average results from the initially acidic digested prepared samples of the bivalves (mantle and crust) and the sediments were recorded by furnace atomic absorption spectrometry methods. The results illustrated that the average of Zn accumulation has the maximum value in the sediment samples of warm-season samples (28.8±3.80 µg.g dry w.-1) as well the cold-season (16.9±1.23 µg.g dry w.-1). Furthermore, the accumulation values of zinc in the warm-season and the cold-season samples had the maximum values in the tissue samples with values 206.2±33.77 and 89.1 ± 19.02 µg.g dry w.-1 and the crust samples with values 35.6 ± 3.06 and 33.1 ± 3.10 µg.g dry w.-1 , respectively. Except for heavy metal Cd, the similarity values of the metals Zn, Pb and Cd in both sediment samples and the crusts of C. fluminalis demonstrates the relative extents of the heavy metals in the habitat of the bivalves with no seasonal effect on the values fluctuation. The levels of measured samples of mantles revealed the tissues of living C. fluminalis rule as the bioaccumulation of the metals Zn, Pb, Cu and Cd in the river ecosystem.

With the examination of 1655 kingfish stomachs caught by drifting gillnets, it was revealed that this species fed three groups of preys including fish, Cephalopods, and Crustaceans, of which the fish group accounted for the highest in the frequency of number (99.3%) and in the frequency of occurrence (99.1%). Nine families for the fish group, one family for Cephalopods and one family of Crustaceans were identified, with totally fifteen species were identifiable. In fish group, Engraulididae and Clupeidae families had the highest frequency of number (22% and 13.5% in respective family) and the highest frequency of occurrence (8.4% and 14.4% of the total stomachs examined in respective family), which Clupeidae seems to be a preferred food for kingfish in the coastal waters. Feeding intensity of kingfish is higher when the peaks of small pelagic catches occurred in spring and winter in the coastal waters. Because of the importance of Sardines and Anchovies in the feeding of kingfish, it is necessary to harvest the valuable resource of the small pelagic fish.

They pose the potential for reproductive toxicity for users. This paper provides an overview of the applications of histopathological biomarkers in reproductive toxicity in zebrafish caused by methylparaben. The present study investigated the changes in ovarian histopathology and Gonad Somatic Index (GSI) in zebrafish (Danio rerio) adult female after exposure to 0.001, 0.01, 1 and 10 mg/L methylparaben for 3 weeks in semi-static condition. Histological preparations were stained with Hematoxylin & Eosin. The results showed that Treatment at 0.001 to 10 mg/L of methylparaben had no significant effect on the survival, and condition factor. But in all treatments, GSI decreased and ovarian complications include wrinkled ooplasm, impaired yolk production, granulomatous inflammation and proteinaceous fluid were observed in the interstitial space of treated zebrafish ovaries. Also, atresia of vitellogenic oocytes was determined. These data show that an increase in atretic follicles has negative effects on zebrafish fertility and continuous exposure to subacute sublethal concentrations of methylparaben increase estrogenic and irreversible effects on the reproductive in female zebrafish.   Dano rerio histological biomarkers reproductive toxicity methyl paraben 2016 4 01 75 83 http://jae.hormozgan.ac.ir/article-1-468-en.pdf
