ACETYLCHOLINE ESTERASE, ACETYLCHOLINE, SUCCINIC DEHYDROGENASE AND LACTIC DEHYDROGENASE CHANGES IN THE FRESH WATER FOOD FISH CHANNA STRIATA AFTER EXPOSURE TO CLEISTANTHUS COLLINUS SUICIDAL PLANT EXTRACT

Abstract

Abstract: The enzymes Acetylcholinesterase (AchE), Acetylcholine (Ach), Succinic dehydrogenase (SDH) and Lactatedehydrogenase (LDH) are used as biological markers in the present study. Enzymes are highly sensitive and used to evaluate the biological effects of suicidal plant extract Cleistanthus collinus in freshwater food fish Channa striata. A significant increase in the Ach, LDH and SDH activity in muscle, liver and gill were observed. The AchE activity significantly declined by -49.80% liver, -45.00% gills and -38.03% in liver.
