Research ArticleOpen accessToxicity of Endosulfan to the Red Hybrid TilapiaDwight E. Robinson, Winroy WilliamsExposure of mature red hybrid Tilapia sp. to a range of sub-lethal concentrations of endosulfan for 21 days induced a spectrum of often not clearly distinguishable Behavioural Toxic Symptoms (BTS), ranging from reversible to eventually fatal responses. The No Observed Effect Concentration (NOEC: Below the threshold of BTS) and the Lowest Observed Effect Concentration (LOEC: Above the threshold of low … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 1 · 11 Mar 2015 · 7,114 accessesView PDF Cite
