Abstract

The present study was carried out to determine the  effect of sub-lethal concentration of treated textile  bleaching effluent on the carbohydrate content in gill,  liver, muscle and intestine of Cyprinus carpio after 28  days of exposure. A Significant decrease in  carbohydrate content was observed in muscle, gill,  liver and intestine of effluent treated fish compared to  control fish. Liver tissue showed maximum decline in  carbohydrate content followed by muscle, intestine  and gill. Reduction in carbohydrate content could  have happened by increased utilization of it under  chronic stress by rapid glycogenolysis or by the  inhibition of glycogenesis. In conclusion, the treated  textile bleaching effluent containing toxic  contaminants induced stress and reduced the  nutritive value of fish.
