| dc.description.abstract |
In the present study an endeavour has been made to analyse the acute toxicity
of WAFs of Bombay High crude and Light Diesel oil on commercially important bivalve
species Perna viridis and Perna indica by static bioassay methods. The toxic effects of
chemicals in the WAF on the organisms ; their tissues and eventually on rate functions
have been elucidated.
Marine oil pollution not only affects productivity and quality of marine organisms
but also eventually affects the health of human population due to a possible health risk
by way of consumption of oil contaminated seafood |
