Abstract
The present study was carried out to know the impact of Vitamin C on haematobiochemical parameters in Channa punctatus (Bloch) in Sodium fluoride (NaF) induced toxicity fishes. For this purpose the fishes are divided in to 7 groups and treatment was given as per the experimental protocol. Vitamin C supplementation was given to NaF fishes for 30 days and serum was separated. Then haematobiochemical parameters are like Haemoglobin (Hb), Red blood cells (RBC), White blood cells (WBC), packed cell volume (PCV), Mean corpuscular volume (MCV), mean corpuscular hemoglobin (MCH), mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration (MCHC) are estimated. Hb, RBC, PCV, MCV, MCH, MCHC levels are decreased in NaF intoxicated fishes, where as WBC levels increased. However, with vitamin C administration all these heemetological parameters came back to near to normal levels. The present study proves that protective effect of Vitamin C in sodium fluoride intoxicated fishes.
