Histomorphological and Biochemical Studies in Ovaries of Female Tatera indica and Bandicota bengalensis Inhabiting South-West Region of Punjab in North India
Highlights
The development of modern technology and the rapid industrialization are among the foremost factor for environmental pollution
Several pesticides and November 2018 | Volume 6 | Issue 11 | Page 480 environmental contaminants are potential endocrine disrupters and female reproductive system may be regarded as sensitive target for theses disrupters (Bretveld et al, 2006; Agarwal and Sharma, 2010)
There was significant decrease in the weight of ovary in Tatera indica and weight of vagina in female Tatera indica and Bandicota bengalensis Bathinda rats as compared to the Ludhiana rats (Table 1).The amount of total proteins was less in the ovaries of Tatera indica and Bandicota bengalensis female rats inhabiting Bathinda region of Punjab as compared to Ludhiana rats (Table 2)
Summary
The development of modern technology and the rapid industrialization are among the foremost factor for environmental pollution. Several pesticides and November 2018 | Volume 6 | Issue 11 | Page 480 environmental contaminants are potential endocrine disrupters and female reproductive system may be regarded as sensitive target for theses disrupters (Bretveld et al, 2006; Agarwal and Sharma, 2010). The Malwa region of Punjab India is facing an unprecedented crisis of environmental health linked to indiscriminate, excessive and unsafe use of pesticides, fertilizers and poor ground water quality. Studies of this region have highlighted a sharp increase in many other pesticide-related diseases, such as mental retardation and reproduc-.
