Abstract

In the present study the toxicity of tannery effluent on economically important fish, Channa punctatus. Bioassays were carried out. Changes were observed after 30 days of exposure, (sublethal concentration). Red blood cells, (RBC) count and Hb content decreased when compared to the control. The number of white blood cells (WBC) increased in textile effluent treated fishes.

Keywords

Channa punctatus, Tannery effluent, RBC, WBC, Heamoglobin.
