Abstract

Haematological parameters have been recognized as valuable tool for monitoring fish health. In the present study the haematological profile of fresh water fish Channa punctatus was studied. Fish were exposed to sub lethal concentration of 4-nonylphenol decided after LC50 determination for a period of 24, 48, 72 and 96 hrs. In haematological profile, effect is seen on RBC count, WBC count, Hb, and PCV as well as on Mean corpuscular volume (MCV), mean corpuscular hemoglobin (MCH) and mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration (MCHC). 4-nonylphenol significantly decreases the value of RBCs, Hb, PCV, MCH, MCV, MCHCand WBC count increases with 4-nonylphenol treatment and at different time of exposure. It was concluded that the 4-nonylphenol caused haemotoxicity in fish.
