9、 Foreword ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a

10、technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matter

11、s of electrotechnical standardization. International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2. The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulat

12、ed to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote. Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible

13、 for identifying any or all such patent rights. ISO 23893-1 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 147, Water quality, Subcommittee SC 5, Biological methods. ISO 23893 consists of the following parts, under the general title Water quality Biochemical and physiological measurements on fish: Part

14、1: Sampling of fish, handling and preservation of samples Part 2: Determination of ethoxyresorufin-O-deethylase (EROD) Technical Specification BS ISO 23893-1:2007vIntroduction Determination of biomarker responses can be used to detect toxicity of known as well as unknown pollutants, when they occur

15、singly or in combination. Therefore, measurement of biomarkers is a cost-effective way to assess ecosystem health. In combination with determinations of occurring and suspected pollutants, determinations of biomarkers can facilitate the interpretation of cause-effect relationships in the environment

16、, as well as in laboratory toxicity tests. Information on commonly used biomarkers and the interpretation of biomarker responses is given in Annexes A and B, respectively. Biomarkers like ethoxyresorufin-O-deethylase (EROD), metallothionein and vitellogenin are used to detect and quantify sublethal

17、effects of pollutants, especially in fish. However, many of the biochemical and physiological variables that are used as biomarkers are sensitive not only to disturbances by the pollutants of concern, but also by the normal biochemical and physiological adjustments made by the fish in response to se

18、asonal variation, its normal development and sexual maturation. Some variables can also be affected by general stress to disturbances caused by the handling during fish and fish tissue sampling. Therefore, standardisation of procedures used for sampling and handling of samples prior to determination

19、 of the biochemical and physiological variables is important. Sublethal responses at the individual level usually occur before effects are seen at the population and community level. In the aquatic environment, fish are suitable for detection of physiological effects of pollutants, because they are

20、exposed both through the water and through their food organisms. Also, the physiology and biochemistry of fishes is rather similar to that of humans and other vertebrates, making comparisons with studies on mammals easier than for those with crustaceans and other invertebrates. This part of ISO 2389

21、3 serves as guidance for sampling and a platform for determination of biomarkers in fish, making it possible to use the measurements to: describe the state of the environment regarding effects of anthropogenic compounds on the health of fish; perform time-trend surveillance (monitoring); provide ref

22、erence data and material for assessment of effects from point sources; evaluate and assess environmental threats; provide background information for environmental measures; follow up and assess effects of environmental corrective measures; integrate the biomarker responses with other measurements (e

23、.g. fish abundance, recruitment and pollutant residues) in order to facilitate the interpretation of environmental status or impact. BS ISO 23893-1:2007blank1Water quality Biochemical and physiological measurements on fish Part 1: Sampling of fish, handling and preservation of samples 1 Scope This p

24、art of ISO 23893 provides guidance on how to sample fish for determination of biochemical and physiological characteristics, such as the composition and enzyme activities of blood, liver, muscle and other tissues in order to asses the health of fish in the field as well as in the laboratory. The bio

25、chemical and physiological variables used for this purpose are often called biomarkers. This part of ISO 23893 includes recommendations and methods for: obtaining a site-specific sample of a representative number of fish; sampling fish tissues in the field and in the laboratory; and handling and pre

26、servation of samples prior to analysis of biochemical and physiological variables. 2 Principle Fish of a suitable species, age (size), and sex are sampled at selected sites at a suitable time of the year in order to reduce variability due to biological, geographical, and seasonal influences. Standar

27、dised sampling and measurement procedures, and qualified staff are used for collection of samples, transport, storage, and analysis. By these means, the results from time series of comparable data can be used to detect changes in the environment that are caused by anthropogenic compounds. Necessary

28、permits for fish and fish tissue sampling shall be obtained to comply with national legislation. This may include permits from the (land) owner of the fishing rights, regional environmental and fishery authorities, and ethical (animal rights) authorities. The health of fish can be assessed by determ

29、ination of biochemical, physiological, histological, and pathological methods. The subcellular and cellular variables are often called biomarkers. The primary toxic effect of pollutants, which occurs at the subcellular level, results in a biochemical or physiological change. This reaction is usually

30、 fast, and it can progress further and cause disturbances at higher levels of biological organisation within the organism, resulting in changes at the cellular and tissue (organ) level (histological changes). These can lead to disturbances of reproduction and growth, and can eventually cause death o

31、f the organism. Monitoring of fish health can, therefore, serve as an early warning system for anthropogenic disturbance. Through a combination with other measurements (integrated monitoring), it may be possible to correlate biomarker responses with for instance pollutant residues, distance from poi

32、nt sources, and ecological variables such as reproductive recruitment, which are known to be sensitive to pollutants. In principle, this method can be applied to all species of fish from all types of environments (fresh, salt, brackish, cold, and warm water) and in shallow as well as reasonably deep

33、 water habitats. However, it is usually advantageous to restrict these methods to certain species of fish, which can be used as indicator species for fish health. These species shall be stationary, readily available (catchable in most locations) and reasonably resistant to handling stress. Their bio

34、logy and physiology should be well known in order to make the interpretation of data easier. Examples of such species are the perch (Perca fluviatilis) and the eelpout (viviparous blenny, Zoarces viviparus), which are used for monitoring along the Swedish coast. BS ISO 23893-1:20072 Preferably the f

35、ish species used in the field should be suitable for keeping in the laboratory for toxicological studies to investigate and confirm cause-effect relationships detected or suspected to take place in the field. Procedures for organ and tissue sampling are essentially identical in both field and labora

36、tory studies. Procedures for collection of fish for field studies and for collection of organs are, therefore, described in separate sections. 3 Equipment 3.1 Fish sampling equipment 3.1.1 Fishing boat, suitable for the area. 3.1.2 Clothing for outdoor work. 3.1.3 Lifejacket, of suitable size and bu

37、oyancy for each crew member. 3.1.4 Gill nets, made from textile or nylon fibres and of specified and suitable size for catching the desired species and size and their gentle release into the fish chest used for storage. 3.1.5 Other equipment for fish capture, e.g. electroshocker and fyke nets, shall

38、 be described in enough detail to allow interpretation and repeated sampling. 3.1.6 Global positioning system (GPS) instrument, for exact location of sampling sites. 3.1.7 Nautical map, for marking of sampling sites. 3.1.8 Knife and pair of scissors, for gentle removal of fish from gill nets. 3.1.9

BS ISO 23893-1:200733.2.11 Sample containers, of suitable sizes for tissue samples (e.g. of plastic with snap locks

43、). 3.2.12 Marking pen, waterproof and freezeproof. 3.2.13 Vacuum flask with liquid nitrogen, for rapid freezing and temporary storage of samples. 3.2.14 Container with solid carbon dioxide, for transport of deep-frozen tissue samples between field laboratory and analytical laboratory. 3.3 Biomarker

44、determination equipment for the field laboratory 3.3.1 Haematocrit tubes and centrifuge, if required. 3.3.2 Blood glucose meter, if required. 3.3.3 Haemoglobin meter, if required. 4 Fish sampling 4.1 Statistical aspects Feral fish, like other wild animals, are affected by a number of natural factors

45、 besides those caused by anthropogenic load. Important natural factors for fish are climate, hydrology, oxygen and salinity (abiotic factors), as well as age, size, sex, maturation, nutritional status, parasites and diseases (biotic factors). All these factors can contribute to the overall variabili

46、ty of the measured response variables. In order to detect temporal changes in trend monitoring and geographical variation in mapping of potential disturbance, all the abiotic and biotic factors mentioned above shall be reduced in importance as much as possible. 4.2 Frequency and season for sampling

47、Fish should be sampled once a year during the autumn period in order to avoid the effects of rapid changes in physiological conditions due to the reproduction season. During the autumn, most species of fish are not reproducing, and the conditions to get enough fish by stationary gear like gill nets

48、(3.1.4) and fyke nets (3.1.5) are still good because the fish are still active. More frequent sampling at other times of the year does generally not provide any new information in trend monitoring. In Sweden, perch for fish-health monitoring is sampled by gill nets in September, and eelpout by fyke

49、nets in November. The most suitable period differs between countries and regions due to differences in climate. Often only sexually mature fish of one sex (e.g. females for perch and eelpout, and males for chub and zebrafish) within a certain size interval are used for each species in order to minimise the influence of sex and size. 4.3 Selection of sampling sites In fish-health monitoring, it is of utmost importance to have as much detailed information as possible about the anthropogenic load on sites to be used as reference locations. These sites should be monitor
