101 Sodium Fluoride Toxicity In Fresh Water Fish Carassius Auratus (Gold Fish), Effects On The Carbohydrate Metabolism
By : O Usha Rani and Raja Naik
Abstract : Fluorides are widely distributed in the rivers, lakes, seas of the world. Most of the fluorides occur naturally. They are leeched from fluoride, Cryolite, apatite and sedimentary phosphate rocks by precipitation and ground water. Pollution both aerial and hydric also contributes fluoride to the aquatic environment. A wide range of environmental and genetic factors cause fish to respond differently to the given level of fluoride, but they do display characteristic fluoride intoxication signs. Fluoride tends to be accumulated in the exoskeleton of invertebrates and in bone tissues of fishes. The fluoride ions act as enzymatic poisons, inhibiting enzyme activity and ultimately interrupting metabolic processes such as glycolysis and synthesis of proteins.
