Effect Of Biopesticide (Azadirachta Indica) On Protein and Glycogen of Fresh Water Catfish Heteropneustes Fossilis

  • Unique Paper ID: 196005
  • PageNo: 295-297
  • Abstract:
  • The side-effect of Azadirachta indica (A. Juss) on certain biochemical parameters of a freshwater catfish, Heteropneustes fossilis was studied for a period of 24, 48, 72, and 96 hr, at sublethal concentration. During the exposure period the protein and glycogen content in the liver, muscle and intestine of treated fish showed decreasing trend.The alterations of these biochemical parameters can be effectively used as nonspecific biomarkers against plant extract toxicity stress and also help safer usage of plant extracts in aquaculture farms.
