“…Similar type of decrease in the level of protein, lipid and glycogen were reported by Mcleay and Brown (1974), Yadav et al (2007), Sakr and Jamal Al lail (2005) and D'cruz, and Miramda (2006). The gradual accumulation of toxicants present in industrial effluent has shown drastic reduction in the protein, lipid and glycogen contents progressively in the fish tissues (Rogar, 1980).…”

This investigation deals with the effect of paper mill effluent, on the histochemical components of the liver of Rasbora daniconius. The Paper mill effluent was collected directly from the 45 Km away from Aurangabad (MS) India. Histochemical studies on protein, lipid and glycogen contents of liver Rasbora daniconius showed a progressive decrease in staining intensity to Mercury bromophenol blue (Hg-BPB), Sudan black B and Bets's Carmine at 30 days exposure when treated at sublethal concentrations (1.9% and 0.95%) of paper mill effluent. The magnitudes of these changes were dose dependent. This study, therefore, concludes that paper mill effluent creates metabolic crisis and impairment in fish liver. The depletion in level of protein, lipid and glycogen points towards exhaustion of cell-energy to meet high demand of fish in stressful condition.

“…The test medium (water) properties were also regularly analyzed. The water temperature was maintained at 18 ± 0.5°C and water quality was monitored daily for pH (6.9 ± 0.1), electric conductivity (281 ± 3.5 lMho/ cm), total alkalinity (48.0 ± 0.7 mg/l), hardness (140.61 ± 4.3 mg/l), dissolved oxygen (7.4 ± 0.2 mg/l), and also for certain ions such as Na, K, Zn, Cr, Cl -and SO 4 2- (Yadav et al 2007).…”

“…Such industrial activities pose serious threat to the life of aquatic organisms in many ways. The fertilizer industry effluent consists of certain toxic components such as ammonia and heavy metals (Zn and Cr) which might be responsible for causing metabolic impairment in the aquatic organisms which could even lead to their death (Ekweozor et al 2001;Bobmanuel et al 2006;Gaitonde et al 2006;Sarkar et al 2006;Yadav et al 2007).…”

Monitoring of acetylcholinesterase (EC: 3.1.1.7, AChE) activity has been widely used in aquatic and terrestrial systems as an indicator of pollutant exposure. The reports regarding impact of fertilizer industry effluent on the level of AChE activity are very scanty. In this paper, an attempt has been made to investigate the in vitro impact of fertilizer industry effluent upon the levels of AChE activity and protein content in different tissues of non-target aquatic fish, Channa striatus (Bloch). The fish when exposed to three sublethal concentrations (3.5, 4.7, and 7.0%; v/v) of fertilizer industry effluent for short (96 h) and long (15 days) durations registered sharp reduction in the levels of AChE activity (15-75%) and protein (10-71%) in different fish organs. The highest effluent concentration treatment for short or long duration, the fish brain and gills registered significant (P < 0.001) inhibition (64-75%) in the activity of AChE whereas other organs such as muscles, liver, and heart exhibited slightly lower inhibition (40-59%) in enzyme activity. However, kidney of C. striatus was the only organ where very less effect (14-18%) of the effluent was observed on the activity of AChE when the fish were exposed to all the three concentrations of the effluent for both treatment durations. This effluent also induced alterations in the level of protein in different fish organs; in kidney the effect was pronounced only at higher concentrations at both treatment durations. The most affected organs were muscle and gills where in 60-71% reduction in the protein content was recorded due to highest effluent concentration treatment at short or long durations. The results of present study indicated that the fertilizer industry effluents might significantly influence the neurotransmission system and protein turnover in the non-target organisms after exposure even at very low concentrations. Further, the data suggested that the fish AChE could be used as a potential biochemical marker for fertilizer industry effluent pollution in aquatic systems.

“…As the toxicity of the medium increases, the protein content in the tissues of hydrobionts decreases [57][58][59][60]. The protein content reflects the physiological state as a reaction to changes in the conditions of existence [61]. The dynamics of protein content in the body depends essentially on the environmental conditions of existence.…”

Abstract. The article shows the results of studies on the influence of heavy metal ions (manganese, nickel, lead) on the viability and metabolic enzyme activity of marbled crayfish Procambarus virginalis (Lyko, 2017) (Decapoda). Due to the fact that marbled crayfish got into the reservoirs of the Dnipropetrovsk region in 2015, it was necessary to study the possibilities of its adaptation to environmental factors of reservoirs for further prediction of its distribution or even acclimatization under conditions of toxicological contamination of the ponds of the steppe Prydniprovya. In the experiment with marbled crayfish, chronic effects of various concentrations of heavy metal ions on the physiological state and enzyme activity were investigated. The obtained results showed that among the investigated heavy metals nickel ions influenced the weight indexes and mortality of crustaceans the most negatively. According to the results of the research, significant changes were noted in the individual biochemical parameters of marbled crayfish under the influence of manganese, lead and nickel ions. The most significant changes in the activity of lactate dehydrogenase were detected in muscle tissues affected by manganese and nickel ions. A significant decrease in the activity of succinate dehydrogenase in muscle of marbled crayfish was determined after the action of heavy metal ions. Investigation of changes in the activity of alkaline phosphatase under the influence of the ions of manganese, lead and nickel has its own characteristics, which indicates certain violations in the tissues of cell membranes. Changes in the activity of enzymes were also reflected in the overall protein content. In conclusion, changes in these parameters may indicate a rapid biochemical response of crustaceans to the toxic effects of heavy metals.
