3. Variations of the average number of all ECAs in the silver barb exposed to sub-lethal concentrations (10% and 50% of LC50) of profenofos and respective controls at each period of exposure (7, 15, and 30 days) and recovery in freshwater for similar intervals. Data represents mean SD (n = 6). Cont –control, Expo – exposure, Recov – recovery
Fig. 4. Various cellular changes of erythrocytes in the blood smears of fish treated with sub-lethal concentrations of profenofos such as (a) echinocytic, (b) elongated, (c) fusion, (d) spindle, (e) tear-drop and (f) twin shaped. Two groups of fish were exposed to 10% and 50% of LC50 of profenofos for 7, 15, and 30 days, while third group treated as control (% profenofos). Three slides were prepared for each fish and 2000 cells were scored from each slide and at least five fish analyzed in each group. Giemsa stain: 100X
Fig. 5. Variations of the mean recovery rate of all ENAs (a) and ECAs (b) in the silver barb exposed to two sub-lethal concentrations (10% and 50% of LC50) of profenofos at each period of exposure (7, 15, and 30 days). Data represent mean SD (n =
