Pharmaco-Chemical Analysis of Industrial Wastewaters

The industrial wastewater contains various biological, organic and inorganic pollutants, and less information is known about their direct effects on human beings. The industrial wastewaters randomly collected from different industries, located at Ogalewadi and Malkapur areas of Karad, were used as test samples. Isolated rectus abdominus muscle preparation was used to study the pharmacological effects of the industrial wastewaters as simulation for the human effects. The composition of the industrial wastewaters was analyzed for its various parameters using standard analytical methods. The results demonstrated the effects of industrial wastewaters on the rectus muscle of frog, which indicates the toxic nature of the wastes. The study helps to elucidate the effects of industrial wastewaters on the vital human functions and will provide information for the management of pollution control.
