title: The effects of a few xenobiotics on certain phosphatases in the plasma of Clarias batrachus and Cirrhina mrigala.
abstract: The effects of sublethal concentrations 1/2, 1/4 and 1/8 fractions of 96-h LC50 of aldrin and Swascofix CD-38 on alkaline, acid and glucose-6-phosphatases in the plasma of Clarias batrachus and Cirrhina mrigala were studied. These enzymes increased after exposure of fish to both xenobiotics. The increase was maximal after 20 days exposure to the highest concentrations. The enzyme increase was greatest in the fish exposed to aldrin.
