Biochemical Studies of Cestode Parasite in Fresh water fish Mastacembalus armatus From Paithan Region

Satish Saraf, Rajesh Katyayani

Abstract :

Parasitic biochemistry is a field growing in parallel with the new surge of interest in tropical diseases. Whereas previously parasitologists have been required to adopt biochemical methodology in order to stay aeast of development. Bio–molecules such as protein, glycogen and lipids are determined in parasites and also infected and noninfected intestine of host. Results, after comparison between cestode parasites and host intestine, the protein and glycogen concentration is lower in Senga Sp. as compare to host intestine (infected and non–infected intestine) and lipid concentration is higher than Senga Sp. as compare to host intestine (infected and non–infected intestine). But the protein, glycogen, lipid concentration is higher in non–infected intestine as compare to infected intestine.
