Imidacloprid (IMI) is a nicotinoid insecticide that belongs to a group of insecticides referred to as the chloronicotinyl group and Curzate M8 (CZ) (72%) is a mixture of two fungicides viz. Cymoxanil (8%) and mencozeb (64%). Teleost were exposed to sub-lethal concentration (LC50/ 10 and LC50/ 20) of IMI and CZ for 21 days to assess the alterations in the level of some biochemical parameters in tissues. Significant alterations in all the biochemical parameters were found to be dose dependent. Increased activity of ALT, AST, ALP and GDH of tissues indicate liver damage. Thus from the present studies it can be concluded that curzate and Imidacloprid are potentially toxic to freshwater Teleosts, Oreochromis mossambicus and Labeo rohita.Keywords
Imidacloprid, Curzate, AST, ALT, ALP, GDH and Teleost
