Effect of Sublethal Concentration of Sugar Factory Effluent on Hepatic Metabolism of Channa Punctatus (Bloch.)
Subject area: Science,Engineering and Technology · Area of research: Zoology
Abstract
The Snake headed air breathing fish, Channa punctatus were reared in different sublethal concentrations (2.5%, 5%, 7.5 % and 10 %) of the distillery effluent for 30 days. Various biochemical constituents of liver (carbohydrate, fat, protein, nucleic acid and phosphatases enzyme) of control and effluent treated fishes were estimated. In the present investigation, sugar factory effluent exposed fish Channa punctatus showed a significant decrease in protein, glycogen, triglyceride , RNA and DNA contents along with increase in acid and alkaline phosphatases enzyme of liver at all sublethal concentrations as compared to control. The percentage of alteration in liver component was directly proportional to the concentration of effluents.
