| Abstract | Long-term metal exposure risk assessment for aquatic organism is a challenge because the chronic toxicity of chemical is not only determined by the amount of accumulated chemical but also affected by the ability of biological regulation or detoxification of biota. We quantified the arsenic (As) detoxification ability of tilapia and developed a biologically based growth toxicity modeling algorithm by integrating the process of detoxification and active regulations (i.e., the balance between accumulated dose, tissue damage and recovery, and the extent of induced toxic effect) for a life span ecological risk prediction. Results showed that detoxification rate (k dex) increased with increasing of waterborne As when the accumulated metal exceeded the internal threshold level of 19.1 μg g − 1. The k dex values were comparable to or even higher than the rates of physiological loss and growth dilution in higher exposure conditions. Model predictions obtained from the proposed growth toxicity model were consistent with the measured growth data. The growth toxicity model was also used to illustrate the health condition and growth trajectories of tilapia from birth to natural death under different exposure scenarios. Results showed that temporal trends of health rates and growth trajectories of exposed fish in different treatments decreased with increasing time and waterborne As, revealing concentration-specific patterns. We suggested that the detoxification rate is critical and should be involved in the risk assessments framework. Our proposed modeling algorithm well characterizes the internal regulation activities and biological response of tilapia under long-term metal stresses. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
