Abstract:
Fish are one of the major sources of protein for human beings and the nutritional value of fish depends on their biochemical composition like protein, amino acids, vitamins, mineral contents, etc. The present study was done with the view to study protein composition by means of electrophoretic patterns of proteins fractions in tissues of O.mossambicus and L.rohita. The clinical value of the protein analysis by electrophoresis depends upon whether a given change represents an adaptation to stress conditions or a failure in the supportive physiological and biochemical mechanisms of the animals. In the present study there was a time dependent significant increase in the total protein content of both the fishes. This appraisal of the quantitative estimation of protein content in tissues of Librel exposed fishes indicates that apparently both species induced time dependent mild to drastic alterations as compared with the controls to face the stress cause by the exposure.
