Volume : I, Issue : V, June - 2011 PHYSICOCHEMICAL CHARACTERIZATION OF UNTREATED TEXTILE EFFLUENT AND ITS EFFECTS ON BIOCHEMICAL CONSTITUENTS OF FRESH WATER FISH, TILAPIA MOSSAMBICA C.M. Noorjahan Published By : Laxmi Book Publication Abstract : The physico chemical parameters (pH, EC, BOD, COD, TDS, TSS,
Chromium, Copper and Zinc) of 100% untreated textile effluents and its effects on
the biochemical constituents present in the gills, liver and muscle
of Tilapia mossambica were studied. The results of analysis of physic chemical
parameters of 100% untreated textile effluents revealed that the parameters such as
pH, EC, BOD, COD, TDS, TSS were found to be higher than the permissible
limits of CPCB (1995) thereby indicating the high pollution potential of the
effluent. The biochemical estimation depletion was followed by carbohydrates and
protein in all the three organs (ie) gills, liver and muscle in the decreasing trend
exposed to untreated textile effluents and gills were most affected compared to
liver and muscle. Keywords : Article : Cite This Article : C.M. Noorjahan, (2011).
