Effect of Bisphenol A on certain Hematological Parameters of Heteropneustes fossilis, Bloch
Journal Title: International journal of Emerging Trends in Science and Technology - Year 2016, Vol 3, Issue 8
Abstract
Effect of Bisphenol A on the hematological parameters total RBC count, total WBC count and hemoglobin content was assessed in Heteropneustes fossilis caught from wild. Behavioural changes were also monitored. It was found that 72 hour exposure of BPA at a concentration of 0.1g/L has lowered total RBC count and increased WBC count. Hemoglobin concentration in the blood also decreased exposure to BPA concentration of 0.1g/L. Severe mortalities in the experimental tanks were noticed at 0.5g/L and 0.1g/L concentrations of BPA. Another significant finding was that the specimens of experimental animal, Heteropneustes fossilis is extremely scarce to be obtained from wild in the regions of Alappuzha, Kerala
