Effects of cyanobacterial biomass on the Japanese quail
Original language description
Mortality of wild aquatic birds has recently been attributed to cyanobacterial toxins. Despite this, no experimental studies on the effects of defined doses of microcystins administered orally to birds exist. In this experiment, four groups of male Japanese quails daily ingesting 10 ml of Microcystis biomass containing 0.045, 0.459, 4.605 or 46.044 mg of microcystins, respectively, for 10 and 30 days, showed no mortality. Histopathological hepatic changes in birds after the biomass exposure included cloudy swelling of hepatocytes, vacuolar dystrophy, steatosis and hyperplasia of lymphatic centres. On subcellular level, shrunken nuclei of hepatocytes containing ring-like nucleoli, cristolysis within mitochondria and vacuoles with pseudomyelin structureswere present. Vacuolar degeneration of the testicular germinative epithelium was found in two exposed males. Statistically significant differences in biochemical parameters were on day 10 of exposure only. They comprised increased activi

Působení biomasy sinic na křepelku japonskou
Czech description
Mortalita volně žijících ptáků je spojována s výskytem sinicových toxinů. Avšak zatím nebyla provedena žádná studie zabývající se orální aplikací microcystinů ptákům jakožto modelovým organismům. V tomto experimentu byly čtyři skupiny křepelky japonské exponovány biomasou sinic a byly pozorovány histopatologické a hematologické změny.
