EFFECT OF PHOSPHATASES ACTIVITY IN THE HEPATOPANCREAS AND MUSCLE OF THE FRESH WATER FEMALE FIELD CRAB, SPIRALOTHELPHUSA HYDRODROMA (HERBST) TREATED WITH CYPERMETHRIN

Abstract

The fresh water field crab, Spiralothelphusa hydrodroma is an important human food source in parts of South India and the crab is constantly exposed to pesticides, which are used extensively to control agricultural pests. Evaluation of the toxic effect of cypermethrin on the experimental crab for the LC₅₀ value was carried out. Effect of cypermethrin on the biochemical changes in the hepatopancreas and muscle was observed. Quantitative study of biochemical changes of acid phosphatase and alkaline phosphatase were undertaken.
