Summary

Chlorantraniliprole insecticide exposure caused biochemical and osmoregulatory imbalances in silver catfish (Rhamdia quelen). These harmful effects persisted even after a 96-hour recovery period in clean water.

Area of Science:

  • Environmental toxicology
  • Aquatic toxicology
  • Fish physiology

Background:

  • Chlorantraniliprole is a widely used insecticide in rice cultivation.
  • Pesticide runoff can contaminate aquatic ecosystems, impacting non-target species like fish.
  • Understanding the physiological effects of pesticides on fish is crucial for environmental risk assessment.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the biochemical alterations in silver catfish (Rhamdia quelen) exposed to chlorantraniliprole.
  • To assess the impact of sub-lethal chlorantraniliprole doses on fish physiology.
  • To determine if recovery in clean water reverses pesticide-induced biochemical changes.

Main Methods:

  • Silver catfish were exposed to two sub-lethal concentrations of chlorantraniliprole (0.02 µg/L and 0.20 µg/L) for 24 or 96 hours.
  • Biochemical parameters including cortisol, glucose, lactate, and plasma protein levels were analyzed.
  • Ionic changes in gills were assessed.
  • A 96-hour recovery period in pesticide-free water followed exposure.

Main Results:

  • Exposure to chlorantraniliprole induced significant biochemical changes in plasma parameters (cortisol, glucose, lactate, plasma protein).
  • Ionic alterations were observed in the gills of exposed silver catfish.
  • These physiological disturbances persisted throughout the exposure and even after the 96-hour recovery period.

Conclusions:

  • Chlorantraniliprole exposure at sub-lethal doses causes biochemical and osmoregulatory imbalances in silver catfish.
  • The observed physiological changes indicate a stress response and disruption of homeostasis.
  • The inability to recover fully suggests potential long-term impacts of chlorantraniliprole on aquatic organisms.
