Microcystin toxicity in a freshwater fish, Heteropneustes fossilis (Bloch)
Microcystin is a toxin secreted by cyanobacteria, which are the dominant phytoplankton in eutrophic freshwater bodies. The present study reports histopathological, hematological and biochemical changes in the freshwater fish, Heteropneustes fossilis due to toxicity of microcystin. Toxic effects were observed in liver, kidney, corpuscles of Stannius, gills and gonads. Bilirubin concentration inc...
متن کاملBiomarkers of monocrotophos in a freshwater fish Channa punctatus (Bloch).
Activity of a few biomarkers have been investigated on freshwater fish Channa punctatus treated with monocrotophos for acute exposure to 18.56 ppm at 96 hr and subacute exposure viz. 0.46 ppm, 0.96 ppm and 1.86 ppm for 30 days. Biomarkers such as total protein, lipid peroxidation and acetylcholinesterase have been measured in different tissues of fish viz. gills, liver, brain and muscles. The p...
متن کاملtoxicological effects and molecular changes due to mercury toxicity in freshwater snakehead (channa punctatus bloch, 1973)
the objectives of this work was to examine the toxicological effect and molecular changes caused by a heavy metal pollutant mercuric chloride (hgcl2), in fresh water snakehead channa punctatus, locally known as taki fish in bangladesh. when fishes were exposed to hgcl2, it induced death of the fishes in a concentration-dependent manner. 1 mm, the highest concentration tested in this study, was ...
متن کاملEvaluation of Genotoxicity Induced by Medicinal Plant Jatropha gossypifolia in Freshwater Fish Channa punctatus (Bloch)
The genotoxic and mutagenic potential of medicinal plant Jatropha gossypifolia, was investigated in fresh water fish Channa punctatus in the present study using micronucleus assay and comet assay. Fishes were exposed at 20% and 40% of the 24 h-LC50 value of plant extract containing Apigenin (76.48 mg L ) and crude latex (22.33 mg L). Both the test chemicals induced significant (P<0.05) genotoxi...
متن کاملClove oil anaesthesia in singhi (Heteropneustes fossilis) and lata (Channa punctatus) fish
Three different concentrations of clove oil were applied to two different size groups of singhi (Heteropneustes fossilis) and lata (Channa punctatus) fish to observe the anaesthetic effect and to find an optimum dose. Two groups each consisting of 10 fish was exposed to 0.01, 0.02 and 0.03% clove oil. All fish of either size anaesthetized with 0.01% clove oil exhibited longer induction and shor...
