Heavy Metal Induced Toxicity in Fish with Special Reference to Zinc and Cadmium
Author(s): Sunita Rani, RK Gupta, Manju Rani
Abstract: Heavy metals are commonly found in water pollutants these days. Toxicity as a result of heavy metals may adversely affect the aquatic flora and fauna. Growth parameters, morphological characteristics and haemotological, biochemical and physiochemical parameters of fish may serve as important bio-indicators against this type of pollution. This in turn may help in timely proper management of water pollution as well as saving the aquatic life from damage, biomagnification, disturbance in food chain and extinction.
