Abstract:Heavy metal pollution in aquatic systems is a global concern because of its toxicity, persistent nature, and its bioaccumulation. The present study was carried out to understand the sub‐lethal effects of lead acetate on Anabas testudineus despite its ability to tolerate stress. Fish were exposed to various concentrations of lead acetate (1.291, 1.936, 3.873 mg/L) for a period of 96 h for assessment of acute toxicity. Various biochemical (protein and glycogen) and enzymatic parameters (acid phosphatase, alkalin… Show more
