Evaluation Of Cadmium And Arsenite Induced Oxidative Stress On Catfish (aspartate Aminotransferase, Alanine Phosphate And Total Protein)

ABSTRACTThe negative consequences of cadmium and arsenite exploitation and exploration on the health status of exposed individuals cannot be over emphasized regardless of its heavy nature. Consumption of this contaminated fish (Clarias gariepinus) by the populace living in the area where the rivers are contaminated with these heavy metals are exposed to damage of the liver. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of cadmium and arsenite contaminated diet on the liver level of Clarias gariepinus (catfish).
