Toxicity Effect Of The Detergent Tide On The Haematological Parameters Of The Freshwater Fish Cirrhinus Mrigala

The presence of detergent in water accelerates the corrosive action, empedes the filtering, sedimentation and coagulation processes, increases the saturation of water with oxygen and also deteriorates the taste properties of water. Soaps and detergents are one of the common pollutants, which causes pollution of inland water at tremendous pace and with the advent of potent anionic surfactant chemicals. The blood parameters were analysed in the fish, Cirrhinus mrigala and the LC50 value was determined when the fish was exposed to detergent tide. The parameters like RBC, Hb, MCV, PCV, Albumin and globulin were decreased and WBC have been increased in the fish.
