SGOT AND SGPT LEVELS IN, CLARIAS BATRACHUS UNDER STRESS CONDITIONS OF LEAD NITRATE

Abstract

Under sublethal settings in the laboratory, the effect of lead nitrate, a very poisonous chemical, on the SGOT and SGPT levels in the serum of the fish Clarias batrachus was investigated in the present work. The effect of lead nitrate on SGOT (u/l) was found to be 35,38.66, 45.20, and 49 after 24, 48, 72, and 96 hours of exposure, respectively, and the influence on SGPT (u/l) was found to be 57.99, 61,64.58, and 70.53 after 24, 48, 72, and 96 hours of exposure, respectively. The findings indicate that the heavy metal combination lead nitrate has a very toxic effect on fish and other aquatic species in our ecosystem, indicating that it is harmful to them. Lead nitrate, Clarias batrachus, ecology, serum, SGOT, and SGPT are some of the keywords used in this study.
