Effect of Organophosphate Insecticide on the Organic Constituents in Liver of Channa punctatus
نویسنده
چکیده
Effect of Chlorpyrifos (Dursban) an organophosphate insecticide on the glycogen, cholesterol, protein, alkaline phosphatase and acid phosphatase in liver in Channa punctatus (Bloch) exhibited notable alterations. Liver being the main site of metabolic activity in body and highly active in both toxifying and detoxifying insecticides, was selected for the study purpose. Chlorpyrifos insecticide caused significant increase in the activity of alkaline phosphatase, acid phosphatase and cholesterol while decrease in glycogen and protein contents in the liver of treated fish. The results related to regressive phenomenon with in the cells. It is found that Dursban disturb the chemical constituents of the fish which leads to cell damages and finally death of fishes.
