Abstract

The haematological parameters like RBC counts, Haemoglobin %, Monocytes, Eosinophil and Basophil were significantly decreased whereas WBC counts, Lymphocytes and Neutrophil were significantly increased in nickel exposed fishes. The results indicate that nickel is toxic at higher concentration. The fish species is therefore recommended as good bioindicator for the risk assessment of aquatic environment due to nickel.
