A 28 day study was undertaken to evaluate the effect of aqueous and ethanolic extracts of root of Eclipa alba in Asian catfish, Clarias batrachus on haematological variables. The fishes of mixed sexes with a mean weight of 70-80 g were selected as experimental model. After acclimation of one week in laboratory condition, fishes were randomly selected into three group of 20 fishes (n = 20) each. Group A served as control and received vehicle only where as group B and C served as test received 10 ppm and 20 ppm of aqueous or ethanolic extract of Eclipta alba root respectively up to 28 days. Blood samples were collected on day 7, 14, 21 and 28 for hematological analysis. Result of test groups were compared statistically with control. RBC, Hb, PCV and WBC counts increased significantly. Increase in MCV and MCH was noticed whereas no clear-cut trend was observed in MCHC.

The present investigation has been conducted to study of the effect of acute exposure of sublethal doses of arsenic tri-oxide (As(2)O(3)) on blood glucose level in an Indian teleost, Clarias batrachus, during their post-breeding season (October to January). The effect was correlated with the sex and doses used with time. Acute exposure of As(2)O(3) of 5, 10 and 15 mg/l for six consecutive days (i.e., 144 h) has been conducted on both sexes of C. batrachus. During the present investigation, it was noticed that the females were more reactive to arsenic in producing hyperglycemia compared to their male counterparts. The difference between males and females to produce hyperglycemia on exposure to arsenic appears to be dose dependent, as lower doses of 5 and 10 mg/l exhibit less difference between the two sexes compared to the highest dose order of 15 mg/l. After 96 h of treatment, a normoglycemic condition was observed in both sexes. However, no significant differences in average normal blood glucose levels were noticed in male and female C. batrachus during the post-breeding season.
