The acute toxic effects of quinalphos (0,0-diethyl 0-2-quinoxalyl phosphorothioata) uere investigated in male buffalo calves. Quinalphos was administered in single oral doses of 5, 7.5, 8.5 and 10 mg/kg body wt. and its effects on erythrocyte and plasma cholinesterases, serum aspartate aminotransferase and blood glucose uere studied at various time intervals. The lowest dose (5 mg/kg) produced no apparent toxic symptoms.All the animals given highest dose (10 mg/kg) died 111 Copyright© 1984 by Marcel Dekker, Inc.

“…Sastry and Sharma (1980) and Agrahari et al (2007) observed an increase in SGOT and SGPT in the blood of C. punctatus following treatment with mercuric chloride and monocrotophos, respectively. Vaglio and Landriscina (1999), Gupta and Paul (1978) and Palanivelu et al (2005) suggested that liver is rich in SGOT and SGPT, and damage to it could result in liberation of large quantities of these enzymes into the blood. An increase in these enzymes after exposure to pollutants is a sensitive indicator of cellular damage ( Van-Dar et al, 2003;Palanivelu et al, 2005).…”

“…Liver of vertebrates generally and fish particularly is the principal organ of detoxification (Freeman et al, 1983). So, the increase in AST might be attributed to tissue damage, particularly liver (Gupta &Paul, 1978 andPalanivelu et al, 2005). The elevation of these enzymes in the extracellular fluid or plasma is a sensitive indicator of cellular damage (Van der Oost et al, 2003 andPalanivelu et al, 2005).…”

Thirty six all male Oreochromis niloticus were divided into two groups, using six glass aquaria. The treated group was fed on a toxic strain of M. aeruginosa, while the control group was fed on a non toxic strain of M. aeruginosa, in order to measure their grazing rates from both strains of M. aeruginosa and consequently its effect on general fish health represented by, clinical signs, hematological changes and biochemical parameters. Grazing rates and daily intake of M. aeruginosa showed close grazing rates between the treated and the control groups with slightly higher intake of non toxic strain than the toxic one were the individual intake was 63,050 and 62,567 cell/ml/fish respectively. Clinical signs in O. niloticus associated with exposure to toxic cyanobacteria were investigated. The observed clinical signs were sluggish movement and reduced reflexes during the late stages of exposure period. Plasma glucose, cortisol, T4, creatinine and AST showed higher concentrations in the treated group than that in the control, indicating on increased fish stress that was reflected in its health state and consequently its performance. On the opposite side, plasma total protein concentration was higher in the control than that in treated group. The hematocrit, plasma albumin, LDH and Alkaline phosphatase concentrations did not show any significant difference in both groups. The study concluded that the uptake of toxic strain of M. aeruginosa via oral route had deleterious effects on some clinical and biochemical parameters of the blood of Nile tilapia which led finally affected the fish health. The study recommendations include prevention and monitoring of organic and inorganic pollution that promote the harmful algal blooms, and take the early preventive measures to avoid toxic effects of cyanobacteria on fish and consequently on humans.
