Combinatory effects of the mixtures of diflubenzuron and p-chloroaniline in tilapia and analysis of bioindicators.

Several chemicals occur together in the environment as a result of different sources. However, in the great majority of risk assessments only a single chemical has been considered. Diflubenzuron (DFB), the most used compound to combat parasites in aquaculture, can be toxic for nontarget species. When degraded, it generates p-chloroaniline (PCA), a potentially carcinogenic and mutagenic compound. This work analyzed the combinatory effects of mixtures of diflubenzuron and p-chloroaniline in Tilapia fish and alterations on phosphatases and catalase activities.
