Seasonal Variation of Serum Enzymes of Indian Freshwater Eel Anguila bicolor (Mcclelanand)

Abstract

Serum enzymes are important aspects in the management of live species such as Anguilla bicolor. The objective of this survey was to discuss the serum enzyme. From this investigation the acid phosphatase of A. bicolor showed a slight seasonal fluctuation, the ACP was found maximum value (5.66 ± 0.49 IU/L) was obtained in summer 2011 and minimum value (3.9 ± 0.32 IU/L) in monsoon 2010; ALP, it was found high (150.56 ± 1.58 IU/L) in post monsoon 2011 and low (107.4 ± 1.32 IU/L) in premonsoon 2011; SGOT the minimum values (23.51 IU/L) was obtained in postmonsoon 2010 and maximum (31.51 IU/L) in summer 2011; SGPT showed a slightly the highest value (33.6 ± 1.21 IU/L) was recorded in monsoon 2010 and lowest value (23.9 ± 1.01 IU/L) in summer 2010; LDH was found to be higher value (77.7 ± 1.58 IU/L) was recorded in summer 2010 and lowest value (61.2 ± 1.31 IU/L) in monsoon 2010 was marked seasonal variations during the two years of the study period. Hence, the present study suggested that this fish are important sources and good for human health.
