Integrated biological responses of zebrafish (Danio rerio) to analyze water quality in regions under anthropogenic influence
Abstract
This study analyzed water quality in regions around Patos lagoon (Southern Brazil) that are under anthropogenic pressure. Water samples were collected from five different sites, including one used as a source for human consumption (COR) and others known to be influenced by human activities (IP).
