... after acute exposure to methylmercury. The toxicity of methylmercury of Nile tilapia was studied in a static renewal bioassay for 48 hours and 96 hours (96 hours L.C-50 0.22 mg/L). The study was conducted on 40 fish that weredivided into 4 groups A, B, C and D. Group A was considered as control group.Group B, C and D were exposed to sublethal concentrations of methylmercury 0.044 mg/L, 0....

...+) can be transformed to methylmercury (MeHg) by a variety of aquatic microorganisms in water. MeHg accumulates in fish through the food chain and eventually poses a particular challenge to public health. In this study, we used a new tool named AIEgen (Aggregation-induced emission fluorogen) to quantify the process of MeHg bioaccumulation in vivo on the species of rotifers Brachionus plicatilis. We analysed the relationship between the ratio of photoluminescen...
