UOK 10: Histological alterations and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons exposure indicative bio fluorescence patterns in fishes from Koggala lagoon, Sri Lanka

Title: UOK 10: Histological alterations and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons exposur...
Abstract: The Koggala lagoon is a coastal wetland affected by a major oil spill and other anthropogenic pollution sources. In this study, gill and liver histological alterations and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) exposure indicative bile fluorescence patterns of the fish species inhabiting the lagoon were examined in order to explore the potential biological impacts. Fixed wavelength fluorescence patterns in the bile of Mugil cephalus, Lutjanus russellii and Etroplus suratensisshowed bioavail...
