商品描述
This book summarizes the latest understanding of the impact of xenobiotics on the developmental and reproductive processes of aquatic animals, particularly nektonic forms, which comprise an important group of aquatic ecosystems.
Aquaculture is quickly becoming the largest contributor of fish protein for human consumption. As the aquaculture business expands, farmed fish will be exposed to more environmental toxins, necessitating the use of chemical therapeutic drugs for fish. This book brings together experts on the regulation of environmental toxins and food chemicals from around the world, as well as researchers looking into the metabolism and disposal of foreign chemicals (xenobiotics) in fish species. The impact of xenobiotics on reproductive and developmental biology of all living forms has become of prime importance at the current time. As the effect of these xenobiotics on aquatic animals is an emerging area for research and development, several groups across the world are working on these aspects, targeting different groups of fishes in both marine and freshwater ecosystems.
This collective work highlights several key and updated recent aspects of different types of xenobiotics entering aquatic ecosystems, impacts of these agents on reproductive physiology, developmental biology, breeding biology, hormonal imbalance, aquatic ecology, and pollution on the aquatic ecosystem. The unique aggregation of different types of stressors to aquatic animals under a single volume will be a useful reference for readers, including scientists, teachers, students, researchers and policymakers and those involved in aquaculture and environment conservation.
商品描述(中文翻譯)
本書總結了對水生動物的發育和生殖過程影響的最新認識,尤其是對重要的水生生態系統組成部分之一的游泳性生物的影響。
水產養殖正迅速成為人類消費的魚類蛋白質的最大貢獻者。隨著水產養殖業的擴大,養殖魚將暴露於更多的環境毒素,需要使用化學治療藥物來保護魚類。本書匯集了來自世界各地的環境毒素和食品化學物質監管專家,以及研究魚類物種中外來化學物質(異物)代謝和處理的研究人員。異物對所有生物的生殖和發育生物學的影響已成為當前的重要問題。由於異物對水生動物的影響是一個新興的研究和發展領域,世界各地的幾個團體正在從事這些方面的研究,針對海洋和淡水生態系統中的不同魚類群體。
本書集結了進入水生生態系統的不同類型異物的幾個關鍵和最新方面,以及這些物質對生殖生理學、發育生物學、繁殖生物學、荷爾蒙失衡、水生生態學和水生生態系統污染的影響。在一本書中集結不同類型的壓力因子對水生動物的影響,將成為讀者的有用參考,包括科學家、教師、學生、研究人員、政策制定者以及從事水產養殖和環境保護的人士。
