dc.description | The toxicity of shea Butter effluent (SBE) was investigated with emphasis on hematological, and biochemical profiles of Clarias gariepinus. adults of 280g_+ 0.3. The haematological indices revealed that increased in the concentration of the effluent brings about a corresponding decrease in the PVC, RBC, and Hemoglobin of the test organism. In the other way round, the volume of white Blood cell decreased at concentration of 0.003, 0.005, 0.007, and 0.009 but increased sharply at 0.011ppt concentration.In the same vein, the shea butter effluents causes a decline in the biochemical composition of Clariasgariepnusvis-à-vis Albumin, protein, cholesterol, Glucose and Urea when compared to the control treatment. Therefore, Shea butter effluent is highly toxic to freshwater fishes, its discharged directly into water bodies, new fish farms or in areas close to aquatic environment should not be encouraged. | |
