Abstract:
Toxicity tests were conducted on freshwater fish, Channa gachua and glycogen content of the tissues like liver and gonad were calculated after acute exposure of toxicants like Confidor and Bavistin upto acute exposure at specific time interval of 24, 48, 72 and 96hrs. In the present study, alteration in the glycogen content was observed due to pesticidal intoxication. There was significant decrease in total glycogen content of the experimental tissues as compare to the control tissue. Confidor was found to more toxic than Bavistin to the freshwater fish, Channa gachua.
