“…The percent mortality observed for each dose was calculated and converted to probits by means of a probit (Finalayson and Verrue, 1982;Hansen et al, 2002), guppy, Poecilia reticulata (Yilmaz et al, 2004), Cyprinus carpio (Muley et al, 2000;Dardenne et al, 2007), Nile tilapia, Oreochromis niloticus (Garcia et al, 2006) and Rohu, Labeo rohita (Dutta and Kaviraj, 2001). In the present research work, Finney's Probit Analysis for evaluating the acute toxicity response gave 96 hour LC 50 value for C. batrachus exposed to CuSO 4 .5H 2 O as 15 ppm, Pb(C 2 H 3 O 2 ) 2 29 ppm, CdCl 2 35 ppm.…”

Acute toxicity bioassay of three different heavy metals copper (Cu), lead (Pb) and cadmium (Cd) for the freshwater catfish, Clarias batrachus were conducted for evaluation of the toxicity. The 96h LC 50 values recorded for Cu, Pb and Cd were 15 ppm, 29 ppm and 35 ppm respectively. The results of this study indicate that the order of toxicity of these heavy metals is Cu>Pb>Cd in short duration acute toxicity experiments. The toxicity was found to be dependent on dose and duration of experiment for all these heavy metals. Cu was found to be much more toxic than Pb and Cd to C. batrachus.

“…The source of toxic mine waste contaminants could be due either to episodic exposures to contaminants that were not detected during sampling and analysis of water for dissolved metals (Marr et al 1995, Hanson 2002 or to dietary metals (Mount et al 1994, Dallinger 1985. It is not obvious which of these two pathways is responsible for the effects seen but exposure to sediments that are known to be enriched with metals from the abandoned mines is a likely cause rather than dissolved metals, which were less than the limits of detection during the study period.…”

Background: Cadmium (Cd) is considered as one of the most toxic heavy metal. Intake of Cd by fish has serious implications. Metal pollution from multifarious sources has adverse effects on aquatic ecosystems. In aquatic systems, Cd is most readily absorbed by organisms directly from the water in its free ionic form. In many contaminated situations with heavy metals, Cd has become an important element of concern because of its bioaccumulative nature in food webs. Therefore, fish living in polluted waters tend to accumulate heavy metals in their tissues. Objectives: To assess the influence of Cd on freshwater fish, this review briefly addresses the Cd emission sources, uptake and impacts of Cd on freshwater fish and bioaccumulation nature of Cd by emphasizing the Cd accumulation affinity in freshwater fish tissues. Results and Discussion: Many studies have been carried out on Cd thresholds in diet and tissues of freshwater fish species. Affinity of freshwater fish to Cd is diverse. Generally, Cd accumulation depends on concentration, time of exposure, way of uptake, environmental conditions and intrinsic factors. Metal accumulation primarily depends on waterborne and dietary pathways. It shows a relationship of Cd level in fish tissues with the age and size of fish. Some species of fish show the highest Cd accumulation in the liver while others in kidneys and gills. Accumulation of Cd by the body muscles is always reported as comparatively low. Cd in freshwater environments results biological and environmental implications by altering reproductive and physiological behaviors of freshwater fish and abilities which ultimately affect environmental permanence and biodiversity of the ecosystem.
