  • Surface Water Analysis in Selected Rivers of Pathanamthitta District, Kerala
    International Journal of Research in Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical Sciences International Journal of Research in Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical Sciences ISSN: 2455-698X Impact Factor: RJIF 5.22 www.pharmacyjournal.in Volume 3; Issue 1; January 2018; Page No. 17-20 Surface water analysis in selected rivers of Pathanamthitta district, Kerala * Kavitha G, Irene Thomas, Lisa Sara, Aswathy Bose, Dr. Elessy Abraham Nazareth College of Pharmacy Othera, Thiruvalla, Kerala, India Abstract Water is the major source for drinking in both urban and rural parts of India. Clean water is absolutely essential for healthy living and is a precious gift of nature. Water is being polluted with increased population, agricultural needs and industrial purpose. The polluted water on drinking may cause serious effect in human beings, domestic animals and even in the case of aquatic organisms. The physicochemical parameters of water samples from Pathanamthitta district were assessed. Water samples were collected from rivers such as Pamba, Manimala, Achankovil, and Kallada. The surface water was analyzed for various physicochemical parameters like colour, odour, taste, turbidity, pH, temperature, total alkalinity, total hardness, calcium, sulphate, nitrate, sodium, potassium, iron, aluminium, conductance, total dissolved solid and chloride after following the methods of American Public Health Association 1995. The results were compared with Bureau of Indian Standard and World Health Organization. The total alkalinity of surface water samples of Achankovil and Manimala rivers flowing through Pathanamthitta district were above desirable limit and also the quality of the surface water should be continuously monitored and can be used for cooking and drinking only after proper treatment. Keywords: surface water analysis, standards, physico chemical analysis Introduction Aim of our study Water quality is fundamental for good river health.

    163 BIODIVERSITY STATUS OF FISHES INHABITING RIVERS OF KERALA (S. INDIA) WITH SPECIAL REFERENCE TO ENDEMISM, THREATS AND CONSERVATION MEASURES Kurup B.M. Radhakrishnan K.V. Manojkumar T.G. School of Industrial Fisheries, Cochin University of Science & Technology, Cochin 682 016, India E-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT The identification of 175 freshwater fish- es from 41 west flowing and 3 east flowing river systems of Kerala were confirmed. These can be grouped under 106 ornamental and 67 food fish- es. The biodiversity status of these fishes was assessed according to IUCN criteria. The results showed that populations of the majority of fish species showed drastic reduction over the past five decades. Thirty-three fish species were found to be endemic to the rivers of Kerala. The distributions of the species were found to vary within and between the river systems and some of the species exhibited a high degree of habitat specificity. The diversity and abundance of the species generally showed an inverse relationship with altitude. The serious threats faced by the freshwater fishes of Kerala are mostly in the form of human interventions and habitat alter- ations and conservation plans for the protection and preservation of the unique and rare fish bio- diversity of Kerala are also highlighted. 164 Biodiversity status of fishes inhabiting rivers of Kerala (S.India) INTRODUCTION river.
