Abstract
Traditionally Emblica officinalis is an effective medicine in ayurvedic system to treat various diseases and hepatic ailments. Malachite green (MG) is a dye, extensively used in textile, paper, leather and confectionary industry. Effectiveness as aquaculture therapeutant, contribute to its addition in list of aquatic toxicant. Semi static bioassay was maintained to assess the efficacy of Emblica officinalis extract as ameliorant in malachite green induced toxicity in Cyprinus carpio. Toxicological investigation comprised of study of alterations in fish demeanor such as opercular movements, air gulping and fin movements (dorsal and caudal) after chronic exposure to malachite green and its restorations on oral supplementation (feed) of plant extract of Emblica officinalis. Observations revealed increased opercular movements & air gulping and reduced fin movements on exposure to dye. However on supplementation with E. officinalis extract behavioural activities were restored near to control fish. From the present investigation it can be concluded that E. officinalis possess potential to restore the altered behavioural activities in C. carpio exposed to sublethal concentration of MG, suggesting efficacy of E. officinalis in combating fish stress against toxicants.
