  • Abstract:
  • The present study was to evaluate the impact of heavy metal toxicity in estuarine fishes Mugil cephalus and Elops saurus. Much research has used the protein electrophoresis as a valid tool to determine intra and inter-specific variation and health of fish. The control and experimental fishes were dissected out, the protein contents of tissue samples (Muscle, gill, liver, kidney, and brain) were analyzed for alterations in the protein profile using SDS PAGE technique. The protein profile found to be varied much from the control samples.
