eltamethrin, a synthetic pyrethroid contaminating aquatic ecosystems as a potential toxic pollutant, is investigated in
the present study. The impact of exposure of the freshwater fish
Heteropneustes fossilis
to two sub lethal concentrations
(0.07mg/L and 0.14 mg/L) of deltamethrin for 30 days on the physiological activities of endocrine glands Ultimobranchial gland,
Corpuscles of Stannius, Prolactin cells, Na+/K+ ATPase, Ca2+ and Mg2+ ATPase and inorganic ions Na+, K+ , Caz+ and Mg2+
in brain, kidney, gills, muscle and intestine was assessed. Significant (p<0.01) decrease was found in Na+/K+ ATPase, Ca2+ and
Mg2+ ATPase activities in fish exposed to higher concentration. Ionic levels in vitals tissues were significantly decreased after
exposure to the two sub lethal concentrations. Endocrine gland viz. ultimobranchial gland, corpuscles of stannious, prolactin
cells, Brain and intestine were the most affected tissues.
