| More Details: | The unobservable use of hormones in fish production is becoming an alarming issue worldwide. To reveal the fact in Bangladesh, 144 fish samples (rui (Labeo rohita), catla (Catla catla), and monosex tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus)) were collected from different fish farms and markets of Mymensingh district. The market samples had two sources (Mymensingh and Rajshahi district). The steroid hormonal (testosterone, estrogen, and progesterone) residue was analyzed by HPLC-UV detection. A standard questionnaire survey was conducted where most farmers (80%) denied using the hormone in fish production. Among the analyzed samples of all three fishes, hormonal residues were detected in approximately 98% of samples, and around 92% contained residues above the ADI. Among the contaminated samples, 70% of samples had a single residue and 30% had multiple residues. The testosterone and progesterone hormonal residue was detected in all three fishes in both farm and market samples and ranged (above ADI) from 2.1 to 16.96 μg/kg and 31.47–731.57 μg/kg (p |
