Abstract
In the anthropogenic sources of pollution, agricultural, industrial, and domestic activities, all types of pesticides have long been for high crops production. This makes difficult periods for all organisms and the food chain. Some data prove that our forming completely trapped by chemicals and high demands of these chemicals is not only directly harmful to health but also damaged non-living matter like soil, water and air.Those indirect harms for the organism, economic losses for farmers. Pesticides have been recognized as serious pollutants in the aquatic environment. Their affection directly and indirectly in fish by accumulation in body and transfer higher trophic as food. They cause serious impairment in metabolic, physiological and structural changes in different organs. The accumulation of pesticides in the tissues of fishes can result in chronic illness and cause potential damage to the population. The present study discusses among other issues, the toxic effects of pesticides on aquatic life with emphasis on fish and the public health implication.
