Abstract/Description: | Toxicological studies on the emergent pollutant, triclosan (TCS) have established the wide-ranging effects of the compound on fish and other aquatic organisms. Although the available literature describes the standalone effects of TCS on growth and metabolism of fish yet, reports about the combined effects of TCS with microbial pathogens are scarce. In a real environment, a combined exposure to TCS and pathogens is of common occurrence, therefore, such investigation facilitates in developing a better understanding about the gross effects of pollutants and microbial pathogens on aquatic organisms including fish. In this context, the experimental fish (striped catfish, Pangasianodon hypophthalmus) were exposed to three different concentrations of TCS viz. 10, 20 and 30% of 96 h LC50 (1177 μg L−1) for 45 days including two control group firstly solvent control (without TCS) group and another one (without solvent and TCS) group in triplicate. Sampling was performed fortnightly and blood, serum and tissues (liver, and gills) samples were collected for evaluating immunological and biochemical parameters. Following 45 days of the experiments, the experimental fish in each treatment group including controls were challenged with a fish pathogenic bacterium Edwardsiella tarda (LD50 dose) and fish mortality was daily monitored for calculating cumulative mortality till 7 days and further, relative per cent survivable was estimated. A significant reduction in cellular immune responses i.e. respiratory burst activity (RBA), myeloperoxidase activity (MPO), phagocytic activity (PA) and humoral immune components viz. serum lysozyme activity, total immunoglobulin in serum, ceruloplasmin level, serum total protein, albumin and globulin level was evident in TCS exposed groups in comparison to control during the experimental periods. Further, oxidative stress parameters viz. superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), glutathione-s-transferase (GST) activity in liver and gill tissue exhibited a dose-dependent increase in activity with related to TCS concentration during the experimental periods. A significant reduction in relative percentage survival was observed with increasing TCS concentration. The present study reveals that TCS can inhibit the cellular and humoral components of the innate immune system of the fish and can elevate the mortality due to TCS mediated immunosuppression in fish during the bacterial infection. |
