چکیده
Effect of mercury on blood and its components of fish Labeo rohita was carried out in this study. The LC50 dose of 57.074 mg/L and mercuric chloride exposure for 96 h resulted in significant changes in the physico-chemical properties such as hemoglobin, osmotic fragility and blood cell counts. Further, mercury exposure also caused a considerable reduction in the sulf-hydryl group of glutathione peroxidase in erythrocytes. The findings are further discussed with relation to mercury toxicological studies.

The snail’s specie, Oncomelania quadrasi, is found abundantly in fresh water fish ponds of Punjab. It is an intermediate carrier / host of various digenetic trematode parasites which causes many serious fish diseases in aquaculture ponds. The purpose of this study was targeted for controlling these snails in aquatic environments through chemical control strategies using copper sulfate as an era...

The effect of phenol on haematological components of Indian major carps, Catla catla, Labeo rohita and Cirrhinus mrigala were observed. After exposure to sublethal concentrations of 5.17 mg l(-1), 6.06 mg l(-1) and 6.99 mg l(-1), the number of red blood cells, haemoglobin content and packed cell volume all decreased but the glucose level increased. The order of decrease in the haematological co...
