History of fish toxicants in the United States History of fish toxicants in the United States
Many bodies of water have been overrun with fish species that are undesirable for the well-being of endemic aquatic biota and are of little or no interest to anglers. This situation has resulted from the transplanting of fish, creation of new waters, increasing fishing pressure and changing water quality. Although as many as 30 toxicants have been tried, only about 30 major piscicides...

Variation in response of channel catfish to Henneguya sp. infections (Protozoa: Myxosporidea) Variation in response of channel catfish to Henneguya sp. infections (Protozoa: Myxosporidea)
Infections in channel catfish (Ictalurus punctatus, Rafinesque) induced by the sporozoan Henneguya (Protozoa: Myxosporidea) result in seven known and diverse disease manifestations. Most outstanding is an interlamellar branchial form responsible for significant losses among immature catfish, and a unique papillomatous form. The question of whether or not the species of Henneguya involved...

Effects of TFM and Bayer 73 on in vivo oxygen consumption of the aquatic midge Chironomus tentans Effects of TFM and Bayer 73 on in vivo oxygen consumption of the aquatic midge Chironomus tentans
Exposure of fourth instar larvae of Chironomus tentans to 2.0‐8.0 mg/liter of TFM (3‐trifluormethyl‐4‐nitrophenol) for 6 hr at 22 ± 0.5 C in soft water resulted in a significantly increased rate of larval oxygen consumption compared to that of control larvae, as measured with the Warburg respirometer. Maximum stimulation of oxygen consumption occurred with 8.0 mg/liter of TFM, and 1.0 mg...
