Studies On The Impact Of Heavy Metal Chromium On Protein Metabolism In Sphaerodema Rusticum (Heteroptera: Belastomatidae)
Main Article Content
Abstract
The effects of median lethal concentration of heavy metal chromium (14ppm for 48h) exhibited a significant decline in the contents of protein and amino acid in the haemolymph, fat body, testis, seminal vesicle. The toxicity impact of chromium on S.rusticum was appropriate to be comparatively higher than any other insects, since it was its own tolerance limit beyond 48h (14 ppm) concentration in the aquatic environment. This suggests that the non-target organisms like S.rusticum could be used as an effective indicator to assess the extent of chromium pollution in the aquatic environment.
