Survival and gill morphology of different life stages of Tilapia guineensis exposed to the drilling fluid XP-07 Sobrevivência e morfologia branquial de Tilapia guineensis expostos ao líquido de perfuração XP-07 em diferentes estágios de vida

The toxicity of drilling fluid XP-07 on gills of three life stages (fry, fingerling and post fingerling) of Tilapia guineensis was evaluated in a 96h static bioassay. The mortality rates of the organisms were determined using the same concentrations of XP-07 in all the life stages. At the end of 96h...
