Title

Blood cell enumeration assay on Channa striatus exposed to sub lethal concentration of Diazinon

Abstract

Diazinon [O, O-diethyl-O-(2-isopropyl-6-methylpyrimidin-4-yl) phosphorothiate] is one of the most widely used pesticides in agriculture for pest control in crops and animals. The present study was conducted to determine toxicity and effects of diazinon on the haematological parameters of juvenile Channa striatus. The lethal concentration of diazinon (96 h LC50) was 24.16 mgl−1 for test fish under a semi-static system. Fish exposed to diazinon showed behavioural abnormalities such as hyperactivity, erratic swimming, convulsion, loss of balance, depigmentation and surfacing to gulp air. Fish were exposed to two sublethal concentrations of the pesticide (LC10, LC20, LC30, LC40, LC50, LC60, LC70, LC80, LC90 and LC99), which were selected on the basis of LC50. The blood samples from the challenged fishes were taken after every 20, 40 and 60 minute in fishes exposed to diazinon. The fish exposed to sublethal concentrations of the pesticide exhibited alterations in various blood parameters. A significant dose and time dependent decrease (p < 0.05) in haematocrit (PCV), haemoglobin (Hb), RBC’s, lymphocytes and monocytes was recorded. An increasing trend was, however, noticed in counts of white blood cells (WBC). The study results highlight the importance of haematological indices as a valuable tool for monitoring diazinon-induced toxicity in aquatic organisms, particularly in fish.
