Abstract

The toxicity of paper mill effluent in liver of Heteropneustes fossilis was studied. Fishes exposed to 0.5 and 0.8 of 96 hrs LC50 of effluents showed significant alteration in biochemical parameters of liver protein and amino acid contents of liver. Protein and amino acid contents of liver are maximum in spawning phases but the protein and amino acid content of liver are measured to be decreased and increased respectively in experimental fishes in all the three phases of the breeding cycle. The changes were observed to be statistically very significant (P < 0.05, P < 0.001
