Abstract
The pesticides and heavy metals have profound effect on the total protein of Red and White muscles of Heteropneutes fossilis. The increase in concentration and exposure period has shown great reduction in the quantity from the control value. The two pesticides: Malathion & γ-BHC and two heavy metal compounds lead nitrate and sodium arsenite were found to be significantly decreasing the total protein of these two tissues. However, the decrease in case of lead nitrate was quite noticeable.
