In Colombia, glyphosate is widely used for weed control, grain ripening and eradication of illicit crops. The Roundup Active® is the most used presentation of glyphosate. This situation has generated environmental, social, ecological and public health problems. For this reason, the objective was determinate apoptosis and cell proliferation sites in the brain of P. brachypomus exposed to sublethal concentrations of Roundup Active®. The fishes were exposed to two concentrations of glyphosate 1 y 3 mg acid equivalent (a.e.)/L and the control with 0 mg a.e./L, prepared from commercial product Roundup Active®. The individuals were maintained in a density of 20 fish/aquarium (20L) for 96h. The fishes were fed twice times a day (8:00 y 16:00 h). Five fish per treatments were sacrif... view more»
