TOXICITY OF ANTRACOL, IN SNAKE HEADED FISH, Channa punctatus (BLOCH.): AN ASSESSMENT BASED ON LDH ISOZYME GEL ELECTROPHORESIS

Abstract

The growth of industry is an important feature of civilization. Agriculture is also an important sector of the economy of any nation. It is true that the economic development in modern times has come to be associated with industrialization can follow only on the sound heels of agriculture. Indian agriculture is the backbone of Indian economy. In comparison with the other countries as regards the share of agriculture in national income we find that India contributes much more, as a vast populated country. The current strategy for agricultural development is mainly bent towards intensifying cultivation in selected areas through the spread of high yielding varieties and multi-cropping programmes which aim at producing two or more crops of short duration as against one crop under the traditional varieties. For this purpose, so many devices are used to increase in per capita income and production; such devices are in the form of fertilizers, pesticides and different mechanical tools also. Electrophoretically estimation of LDH isoformes also showed varying band pattern with respect to control, after function of time followed by antracol intoxication.
