Abstract
Abstract: Enzymes are referred as biological, catalysts which obey certain general rules. . The literature shows investigative lacunae with regard to effects of heavy metals on SDH and LDH activity of aquatic animals especially where fresh water molluscs are concerned. Hence an attempt has been made to study the effect of heavy metals CuSO4, HgCl2 and CdCl2 on fresh water bivalve, Lamellidens Marginalis with respect to change in the level of SDH and LDH enzymes. The depletion in the enzymatic activity may be due to the damage caused by the heavy metal to the cells of the alimentary canal. The important metabolic enzymes in the Kreb’s TCA cycle like SDH and LDH were studied with respect to the heavy metal stress. It was found that the activity of SDH and LDH was depleted significantly after the heavy metal stress
