The effects of Creosote on mortality rate and blood biochemical factors of Stellate sturgeon (Acipenser stellatus)

The effects of Creosote on Stellate sturgeon (Acipenser stellatus) juveniles each weighing 3.6 plus or minus l grams was evaluated. Acute toxicity test was undertaken in static water quality at 22 degree C plus or minus 1 according to the OECD method at the Caspian Sea Ecology Institute in 2005. The effect was assessed based on the results of the acute toxicity test. For the test, the hematological and biochemical properties of one control and five experimental groups of the fish juveniles what were exposed to Creosote were compared. The acute toxicity test lasting 96h was performed in fully static water condition with aeration.
