Effect of garlic extract on mortality and biochemical parameters of fresh water fishes Heteropneustes fossilis against Cypermethrin
Abstract
To find out the effect of garlic extract (GE) on mortality different concentrations of GE (1ml/l, 2ml/l, 5ml/l & 10ml/l) were administered along with the LC50 values of cypermethrin after 24, 48, 72 & 96 h exposures and 10 ml/l of GE was found to be effective at which no mortality occurred. To analyze the effect of GE on biochemical parameters after acute exposure of cypermethrin, fishes were divided into 4 groups of 10 fishes each. Ist group served as control, IInd, IIIrd and IVth group were treated with toxicant (24h LC50), GE (10ml/l) and toxicant + GE respectively. Same protocol was employed using 48-96 h LC50 values & 10ml/l GE. For chronic toxicity experiments fishes were divided into 4 groups of 10 fishes each. Ist group taken as control, IInd group contained 1/10th of 96 h LC50 of CYP, IIIrd group contained 10ml/l GE and in IVth group GE (10ml/l) + CYP (1/10th of 96 h LC50) for 15 days. Experiments were also carried out after 30 and 45 days exposure by same protocol. After acute and chronic exposure periods blood samples were collected, centrifuged and serum was separated to analyze biochemical parameters. Increased level of SGOT, SGPT, ALP, ACP, Creatinine, and Blood Glucose were observed during both acute and chronic exposure. Activity of Total protein was found to be decreased following acute and chronic exposure. Level of Uric acid increased in acute exposure but decreased during chronic exposure. However, garlic extract supplementation showed a remarkable reduction to these changes and all the parameters tends to become normalize. Our data indicate that garlic is a powerful antioxidant against cypermethrin induced toxicity.
