Sublethal effects of trimethoprim on four freshwater organisms
Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety, 2012 Sublethal effects of trimethoprim (TMP) were evaluated in four freshwater organisms: Pseudokirchneriella subcapitata and Lemna minor (growth inhibition), Daphnia magna (reproduction and growth inhibition) and Poecilia reticulata (swimming activity inhibition). Cytochrome P4501A induction was also evaluated in P. reticulata. TMP showed varying levels of

Costs of Chronic Waterborne Zinc Exposure and the Consequences of Zinc Acclimation on the Gill/Zinc Interactions of Rainbow Trout in Hard and Soft Water [PDF]
, 1999 Juvenile rainbow trout were exposed to zinc in both moderately hard water (hardness 5 120 mg CaCO3/L, pH = 8.0, Zn = 150 μg/L or 450 μg/L) and soft water (hardness = 20 mg CaCO3/L, pH = 7.2, Zn = 50 μg/L or 120 μg/L) for 30 d.

Sublethal effects of three ectoparasites on fish [PDF]
Journal of Fish Biology, 1975 Vulnerability to predation, resistance to high temperature, weight‐length relationships, and fecundity were compared for fish with and without or with light and heavy infestations of three ectoparasites. The fish and parasites were fathead minnow (Pimephales promelas) with anchor worm (Lernaea cyprinaceae); brook trout (Salvelinus fontinalis) with gill
