Effect of Hexavalent Chromium and Aluminium in Fresh Water Fish Ictalurus Punctatus and Bioremediation by Using Dead Fungal Biomass
Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Pharmacy and Biological Sciences (IOSR-JPBS) - Year 2016, Vol 11, Issue 2
Abstract
Fish serum may reflect status of many biochemical processes in the metabolism. Heavy metals may alter serum biochemical parameters in fishes. In this study, the effect of Cr(VI) and Al(III) in fresh water fish I.Punctatus and neutralize these metals by using dead fungal biomass. Activity of serum enzymes AST, ALT, ALP, CPK, LDH and α – amylase in aluminium and chromium exposed fish. The above study suggests that serum biochemical parameters could be used as important and sensitive biomarkers in ecotoxicological studies concerning the effects of metal contamination and fish health. To remove these heavy metals from environment by using dead fungal biomass. In this investigation, the following batch experiments study carried out by the adsorption range of metal ions [Cr(VI) &Al(III)] in optimum pH 5.2 & 5.5, various concentration of metal ions completely adsorbed with in 8hours contact time.
