Abstract
This study was conducted to throw the light on the effects of Clarias lazera exposure to the herbicide thiobencarb in concentrations of (1.0 & 2.0 pp m) on liver and kidney functions
furthermore, studying the effect of thiobencarb at both concentrations on total proteins, albumin, globulins, glucose, cholesterol, triglycerides and cholinesterase enzyme activities. As
well as its effect on some serum electrolytes (calcium, sodium and
potassium). The histopathological changes were also recorded. The
results are summarized as foiIows:
* Biochemical effects:
1- Liver function tests:
The exposure of catfish (Clariaz lazera) to both
concentrations of thiobencarb resulted in a significant increase in
serum levels of AST, ALT and ALP along the course of the
experiment (14 days). whereas the activities of these enzymes were
decreased during the recovery period (7 days).
2- Serum total proteins, albumin & globulins:
Serum total proteins, albumin and globulins showed a marked
increase during the entire period of exposure, then returned to their
normal limits during recovery period.
