Effect of Pesticide Prochloraz on Embryo-Larval Development of Common Carp (Cyprinus carpio)

Original language description

In the few past decades, water pollution caused by pesticides has become a commonly discussed issue including many scientific studies published on the presence of pesticide residues in the environment and their negative effect on non-target species. Pesticides are commonly used in agriculture and in households. Since they are persistent and might have bioaccumulation potential, they have been detected in surface water. Their residues can have a negative effect on aquatic biota, such as fish and other non-target organisms. Prochloraz is widely used imidazole fungicide, among other toxic properties it is also considered a potential endocrine disruptor. The aim of this research study was to describe the effects fungicide prochloraz on development of common carp early life stages using the Early-live Stage Toxicity Test according to the Guideline for Test No. 210. Five different concentrations of prochloraz (0.1µg/L, 1 µg/L, 10 µg/L, 100 µg/L and 1 000 µg/L) were applied to water for 31 days with fresh solution replacements twice a day. In the study, statistically significant changes were observed at high tested concentrations. The results of the study showed that fungicide prochloraz had a negative effect on fish development at some tested concentration. This research was supported by project PROFISH – Mendel University in Brno, CZ.02.1.01/0.0/0.0/16_019/0000869 and IGA VETUNI 223/2021/FVHE.
