Effect Of Carbosulfan On Biochemical Profile Of Liver And Muscle In Fresh Water Cyprinid, Garra Mullya (Sykes)

Alteration in physiological functions and of body structures are the most important detectable parameters of pollution effects at individual as well as population level. Changes in biochemical composition of liver and muscle tissue of fresh water fish Garra mullya (Sykes) exposed to lethal (3.4903 ppm) and sub lethal (0.6980 ppm) concentrations of carbosulfan along with control animals were studied. The total glycogen, protein and lipid content in liver and muscle of fish Garra mullya decreased in acute and chronic treatment of carbosulfan. Chronic exposures to low levels of pesticides have more significant effect on fish pollution than acute poisoning.
