Puspanjali Parida, Bijayeeta Deb

Abstract :

 Hemidactylus leschenaulultii were caught locally from North Orissa University campus Baripada. They were divided into four groups and treated with Nickel chloride (0.01µg dissolved in water) at different time intervals (24 h, 48 h and 72 h) against the control (0 h). The protein content, reduced glutathione level (GSH) and lipid peroxidation (LPX) level were measured in the liver of Hemidactylus in both control and experimental (treated) group. Variation of different parameteres of liver were observed at different time intervals. Besides that the change in behavior, colour of liver and weight loss were also observed. On the basis of the results, It is concluded that nickel chloride affect the physiology of the animal even at low dose
