Effect of Emerging Contaminants (Sucralose) at Relevant Concentrations on Functional Properties in Fish Muscle of Common Carp (Cyprinus carpio)

Sucralose, a persistent and widely used artificial sweetener, has emerged as a significant contaminant in aquatic environments, raising concerns about its ecological and physio- logical effects on aquatic species. This study investigates the impact of environmentally relevant concentrations of sucralose on the muscle quality of common carp (Cyprinus car- pio), a bioindicator species. Using High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC), sucralose was quantified in water and fish muscle tissues,...
