Crude oil exposure of early life stages of Atlantic haddock suggests threshold levels for developmental toxicity as low as 0.1?g total polyaromatic hydrocarbon (TPAH)/L

Elin Sorhus et al.

Summary: Atlantic haddock embryos are highly sensitive to toxicity from spilled oil due to their ability to bind dispersed crude oil droplets to the eggshell. Our study established developmental toxicity thresholds and identified potential long-term adverse effects. Embryos exposed to different oil concentrations exhibited acute and delayed mortality at different life stages, with an effect threshold of 0.1 μg TPAH/L recommended for risk assessment models due to latent sublethal developmental toxicity.

The effects of cryogenically preserved sperm on the fertilization, embryonic development and hatching success of lumpfish C. lumpus

Albert Kjartan Dagbjartarson Imsland et al.

Summary: The study compared the use of fresh and cryogenically frozen lumpfish sperm for fertilization, with fresh sperm resulting in higher fertilization and survival rates for eggs, although there was no significant difference in the weight of the larvae.

The impact of exposure timing on embryo mortality and the partitioning of PAHS when cod eggs are exposed to dispersed and dissolved crude oil

Trond Nordtug et al.

Summary: This study demonstrates that the timing of exposure and the presence of oil micro droplets can affect the uptake and survival of PAH in pelagic Atlantic cod eggs exposed to oil dispersions. Although the dissolved fraction is the main driver of toxicity in cod embryos, crude oil micro droplets also contribute to increased mortality.

Comparative proximate analysis of wild and captive lumpfish (Cyclopterus lumpus) eggs show deficiencies in captive eggs and possible egg quality determinants

Samuel M. Pountney et al.

Summary: This study assessed the hatching success and nutritional composition of lumpfish eggs and found lower egg quality in captive broodstock. Compared to wild broodstock, eggs from farmed broodstock had lower fertilization rates, eyeing rates, and survival to hatching, as well as lower lipid content, mineral levels, and overall egg pigment levels.

Ova lipid profiling and egg quality in wild and captive lumpfish, Cyclopterus lumpus (Linnaeus, 1758)

Bjorn Henrik Hansen et al.

Summary: Wild-caught lumpfish have higher egg quality and hatching success compared to captive lumpfish, with no significant differences in other biological variables. The lipid composition of lumpfish eggs can be used to differentiate between eggs from wild-caught females of different origins and captive broodstock with different diets, and these lipid profiles can also predict the quality of the eggs.

Monitoring ocean water quality by deployment of lumpfish (Cyclopterus lumpus) eggs: In situ bioaccumulation and toxicity in embryos

Bjorn Henrik Hansen et al.

Summary: Fish embryos can be used as sentinels for environmental biomonitoring, but their fragility and seasonality limit their use. In this study, caged lumpfish eggs were successfully used for in situ biomonitoring of organic contaminants. The eggs showed high survival rates in different environments. Organic contaminants were effectively accumulated in eggs in polluted areas, but no evidence of toxicity was found in terms of larval morphometry.

Automated morphometrics on microscopy images of Atlantic cod larvae using Mask R-CNN and classical machine vision techniques

Bjarne Kvaestad et al.

Summary: Measurement of morphometric parameters on fish larvae is important for environmental research and cultivation industry. The use of Mask R-CNN for instance segmentation helps to automate parameter acquisition, saving time and improving accuracy. This technique has been successfully tested on various species of organisms.

Application of quantitative transcriptomics in evaluating the ex vivo effects of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances on Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua) ovarian physiology

Essa Ahsan Khan et al.

Summary: This study investigated the effects of PFASs on Atlantic cod ovarian tissue, revealing that high concentrations of exposure led to an increase in differentially expressed genes, with the highest concentrations of PFNA, PFOA, PFOS, and the mixture exposure showing significant DEG changes. High concentrations of PFOS and mixture exposure group displayed similar transcript expression patterns, suggesting PFOS as the main active component in the mixture.

North sea produced water PAH exposure and uptake in early life stages of Atlantic Cod

Raymond Nepstad et al.

Summary: Offshore oil and gas platforms discharge produced water containing PAHs into the ocean, impacting the early life stages of Atlantic Cod in the North Sea. A numerical model was used to study the fate and uptake of PAHs, showing significant differences between predicted internal concentrations and discharge concentrations of PAHs over multiple years of simulation.

Differential developmental toxicity of crude oil in early life stages of Atlantic halibut (Hippoglossus hippoglossus)

Prescilla Perrichon et al.

Summary: The study demonstrated the importance of exposure timing on the toxic effects of crude oil in Atlantic halibut. Both early and late embryonic exposures did not show notable acute toxicity, but exhibited global latent teratogenic effects during yolk sac stages. Fish exposed during organogenesis (late) displayed stronger toxic effects compared to fish exposed during the epiboly process (early), indicating exposure timing significantly influences toxic effects.

Untangling mechanisms of crude oil toxicity: Linking gene expression, morphology and PAHs at two developmental stages in a cold-water fish

Elin SOrhus et al.

Summary: Early life stages of fish are highly sensitive to crude oil exposure, with detrimental consequences for juvenile survival. Gene expression changes are linked to PAH uptake, metabolite formation, and developmental abnormalities. Changes in bmp10 and rhag expression suggest direct impact on calcium homeostasis and osmoregulation.

Bjorn Henrik Hansen et al.

Summary: This study investigated the toxicity of three marine fuel oils on the early life stages of cod, showing developmental toxicity, morphological changes, and cardiotoxicity. The research also indicated that these fuel oils can affect specific gene pathways, potentially leading to related diseases.
