Abstract

The Freshwater fish Labeo rohita was exposed to sublethal and lethal concentrations of Chlorantraniliprole to determine the oxygen consumption patterns. The rate of oxygen consumption was declined in pesticide treatment fish. Severe respiratory distress, rapid opercular movements, leading to the higher amount of toxicant uptake, increased mucus secretion, higher ventilation volume, and decrease in the oxygen uptake efficiency, labored breathing and engulfing of air through the mouth were observed in the fish.
