Abstract

In the present investigation, the effect of sub lethal concentration of the garlic aqueous extract on fish Channa punctatus were studied after 24 hrs, 48 hrs, 72 hrs and 96 hrs exposure respectively. Different concentrations of garlic (10 ppm/lit, 15 ppm/lit) used against Protein contentof fish and results showed the gradual decrease in the protein content, ranging (106.14 91.65 mg/gm) for 10 ppm/lit for (24 hrs 96 hrs) and (103.90 - 88.13 mg/gm) for 15 ppm/lit respectively.

Highlights

  • Weed fishes and predatory fishes contribute a serious problem for fish culture practices in India

  • The toxicity of aqueous extract of garlic has been observed on Protein content expressed as mg/gm in fish Channa Punctatus

  • Materials and Methods 2.1 Experimental animal: Healthy and live specimen of fish Channa punctatus were collected from the local fish market

Summary

Introduction

Weed fishes and predatory fishes contribute a serious problem for fish culture practices in India Which are found in several plants of different families with piscicidal activities are used to control of fish[11,12,13] Due to their long term persistence in the aquatic systems, it gets accumulated in the fish body. The toxicity of aqueous extract of garlic has been observed on Protein content expressed as mg/gm in fish Channa Punctatus. It is an important food fish and is widely distributed across the Indian subcontinent
