Sublethal Toxic Effect of Paraquat Dichloride on Tissue Biochemical Markers in Labeo rohita
Abstract: The present study investigated the sublethal toxic effect of the commercial grade herbicide, Paraquat dichloride (24% SL), on Labeo rohita stressing the importance on biochemical parameters. Fishes were exposed to the sublethal concentrations of paraquat dichloride (5 μg/l and 10 μg/l) for 24 h in treated groups. Treated groups showed highly changed biochemical parameters on their exposure to the herbicide paraquat, when compared to the control. Tissues such as brain, …

Biochemical Biomarkers as a Tool in Chromium Induced Toxicity to Green Tiger Prawn, Penaeus semisulcatus (De-Haan, 1844)
Abstract: Estuarine ecosystem and its biodiversity are at higher risk due to coastal contamination by heavy metals and conservation of biodiversity can be accomplished by utilizing biomarkers of pollutant at different exposure levels. In the present study, chronic toxicity test was conducted to evaluate the antioxidants and enzymes as the possible biomarkers in Green Tiger Prawn, Penaeus semisulcatus. The chronic endpoint value (MATC), no-observed effect concentration (NOEC), and low-observed effective concentration …
