Genotoxicology: Single and Joint Action of Copper and Zinc to <i>Synodontis clarias</i> and <i>Tilapia nilotica</i>

The genotoxicity of copper, zinc and their binary mixture was examined in Synodontis clarias and Tilapia nilotica using the sensitive micronucleus assay in fish genome. Increased formation of the micronuclei were observed in all the three concentrations studied (0.25LC50, 0.125LC50 and 0.0625LC50)....
