Effects of chronic cadmium exposure on the sexual maturity, production and bioaccumulation of pearl gourani trichogaster leeri

80 day bioassay using three concentration of Cadmium 0.420, 0.201 and 0.121 mg/L were conducted beginning with 5-6 day old Gourami Trichogaster Leeri. The uptake of cadmium occurred during pregnancy indicating that females transfer cadmium to the embryo. Highest concentration of cadmium occurred in...
