Abstract

The present study has been conducted to understand the effect of sublethal concentration of phenol (96 LC50 – 10% SLC) on the biochemical composition of Indian major Cirrhinus mrigala for a period of 7, 14 and 21 days. The biochemical components carbohydrate, protein and lipids were measured both in control and experimental fish. During the exposure periods the biochemical constituents were decreased in the experimental fish with duration and concentration of phenol.

Keywords: Phenol, toxicity, biochemical composition, Cirrhinus mrigala.
