Abstract: | The present work is a base—|ine attempt to investigate and assess
the toxicity of water-accommodated fractions (WAF) of Bombay High crude
oil. The experimental animal selected for the present study is a euryhaline
teleost, Oreochromis mossambicus (Peters), adapted to fresh water. The fish
has been selected on account of its economic valve, abundant availability,
experimental feasibility, ease of rearing and maintenance and also because it
is one of the commonly cultured species in the South-East Asian countries. |
