Sub-lethal effects of organophosphates and synthetic pyrethroid insecticides on muscle tissue transaminases of Oreochromis niloticus in vivo

Organophosphates and synthetic pyrethroid insecticides have been commonly used in public health and agriculture. The present study aimed to evaluate the sub-lethal effects of organophosphates and synthetic pyrethroid insecticides on transaminases: glutamate oxaloacetate/aspartate transaminase (AST)...

Description
Summary:Organophosphates and synthetic pyrethroid insecticides have been commonly used in public health and agriculture. The present study aimed to evaluate the sub-lethal effects of organophosphates and synthetic pyrethroid insecticides on transaminases: glutamate oxaloacetate/aspartate transaminase (AST) and glutamate pyruvate/alanine transaminase (ALT) in Oreochromis niloticus . Fish were exposed to malathion (OP), chlorpyrifos (OP) and λ-cyhalothrin (synthetic pyrethroid) at sub-lethal concentrations of 1.425, 0.125 and 0.0039 ppm, respectively for 24 and 48 h. AST and ALT activities were shown to be remarkably ( p
