Published Paper Details:

A physiological process of respiration, which involves both inspiration and expiration, had/have/has an impact on the fish due to the toxic action of the pesticides, chlorpyrifos, an organophosphate in the laboratory study of the fish Channa punctata both in lethal and sub-lethal concentrations, exposed to the technical grade as well as 20% EC. The toxicants resulted an alterations/changes in the consumption of the oxygen while during the process of the inspiration. The results of the increase initially and decrease during the later periods at both the concentrations and toxicants, resulted due to the reason of the toxicant stress actions only, because the entry point of the toxicants and diffusion of gases is one and the same, that is the gills. They, all, are going to be discussed with the literature of the earlier work reports, in the context of the defilement act due to their indiscriminate use and are transported to the aquatic bodies that are nearby and effect the non-target organisms, especially, the fishes which are all going to be reviewed.
