Abstract
The present study was designed to evaluate the effect of acetaminophen on hematologic and blood biochemistry of rainbow trout in a 4-day period. To that end, total 300 fingerlings with an average body weight of 12.5±2.5 g were randomly allocated into 15 polyethylene tanks (with 100L volume). Fingerlings were exposed to five concentrations of acetaminophen, namely, 0, 0.01, 0.1, 1. 10 mg/L for 4 days. Hematologic and Biochemical Parameters of Rainbow Trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) exposed to Acetaminophen were measured. According to the results, the number of white blood cells was significantly different compared to the control group and other treatments at concentration of 10 mg/l. The number of red blood cells, hemoglobin, mean hemoglobin volume (MCV) and hematocrit were higher in the control group and And the lowest amount was observed at a concentration of 10 mg/l and There was a significant difference between these parameters in different treatments. There wasn´t significant difference in mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration (MCH) between experimental treatments. There was a significant difference in serum lysozyme enzyme and complement (ACH50) activity in fingerling exposed to acetaminophen. There was a significant difference in cortisol and glucose levels in different treatments so that the most amount of cortisol and glucose showed in the control group and the less amount was observed in treatment 5.

Abstract
In the present study, The effect of phthalate ester toxicity (0.1 and 1 mg/L) was investigated on some non-specific mucus parameters of common carp (Cyprinus carpio). 180 common carp (17.60±2.22gr) is gathered from warm water fish center and they were allocated into 9 tanks (20 Fish per tank). Fish adapted to new condition for a week. During this time; they were feed twice a day with same diets. Fishes were exposed at 3 concentration treatments containing 0; 0.1 and 1 mg/L DEHP under laboratory condition (25±0.5°C; pH: 7.4-8) for a period of 96 hours. Alkaline phosphatase, lysozyme, soluble protein, and immunoglobulin of mucus was measured and evaluated. The results showed that the levels of lysozyme, alkaline phosphatase and immunoglobulin in common carp skin mucus decreased when exposed to DEHP (with increasing concentration and exposure duration) And the level of soluble protein of common carp skin mucus increased when exposed to DEHP (with increasing concentration and exposure duration). These results indicated that concentrations of DEHP beneficially affects Amino Acid profiles of skin mucus in carp and they were categorized in 4 branches. There were Significant differences between exposed and control groups. Therefore; fish skin mucus can be a biomarker for showing contaminants and toxins. And the high consumption of plastic materials can be a warning to the health of aquatic animals and humans.
