Description :
: Effect of sub lethal concentration of pyrethroid pesticides Cypermethrin on aquatic snail, Bellamya bengalensis was evaluated. The histochemical and biochemical analysis for 15 days exposed snail was made in the present work. The amount of biochemical components was greatly influenced in the range of 9.03% to 44.52% by Cypermethrin which causes depletion in glycogen level. The maximum depletion of glycogen content observed during the post-reproductive period after 15 days of exposure span.
