ABSTRACT

The effect of mixing of effluents of sugar and other industries in river Gomati passing through Sultanpur district of Uttar Pradesh was studied on protein contents in fresh water fish, Channa punctatus. Protein contents in Channa punctatus decreased due to pollution caused by industrial effluents and variations in fishes collected in different months showed that this reduction was also dependent on seasonal changes.

Key words :Channa punctatus, Gomati, Industial effluents, Protein.
