Distillery waste toxicity: metabolic dysfunctioning in nine freshwater teleosts.
An inverse relationship was recorded between the concentrations of distillery waste (5, 10, 15, 20 ppm) and liver and muscle glycogen depletion of the fish studied. Serum glucose and lactate levels rose with increased industrial effluent concentrations. Changes were more marked in major carp species than in catfish or murrels. The effect of effluent addition upon water quality is recorded.
