Volume : I, Issue : V, June - 2011 Toxic Effects of Ammonia on Biochemical and Histological alterations in the Different organs of Freshwater mussel, Lamellidens marginalis Ramesh. V. , Amanullah, J A. Rameshkumar DOI : 10.9780/22307850, Published By : Laxmi Book Publication Abstract : Aquatic organisms are susceptible to pollution by pesticide as well as by
industrial effluents. Higher concentration of the pollutant cause histological
changes and also collapses the biochemical composition. The present paper
documents biochemical alterations with special reference to protein, carbohydrate
and lipids and histological changes in gills, hepatopancreas and visceral mass of
freshwater mussel, L. marginalis exposed to sub lethal concentrations of
Ammonia. Keywords : Article : Cite This Article : Ramesh. V. , Amanullah, J A. Rameshkumar , (2011).
