Mahua oil cake. a derivative from the plant Bussia latijolia, is extensively used as fish toxicant cum pond manure in inland aquaculture systems of India. Saponin. one of the haemolytic components of mahua oil cake. has a lethal effect on fishes and other organisms. In the present investigation. Heteropneustes j()ssilis-lln air-breathing catfish and Cyprinus carpio-a carp. were treated with mahua oil cake and their haernatological indices were evaluated. The elTect was fatally critical with gradual and complete shrinkage of erythrocytes. followed by ultimate haemolysis of cells, and significant reduction of the values of haematocrit, haemoglobin concentration and red cell count. Keywords. Fish haematology; toxicology; effect of MOC; blood cells. l. Introduction Mahua oil cake (MOC), a derivative from the plant Bassia latifolia, is extensively used in aquacuiture practices in India, both as a fish toxicant and an organic manure in fish ponds after its toxic effects are completely diminished. Most information regarding the effects of toxicity of MOC have been obtained through studies on the mortality rate (Lakshmanan 1983; Nath 1979). In the present communication, an attempt has been made to find out the changes in the blood parameters caused by the toxic effects of MOC.
