Heavy metal toxicity in Buriganga river alters the immunology of Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus L)

The objective of the current study was to evaluate the biochemical and immunological responses of tilapia, Oreochromis niloticus due to heavy metals pollution. Histomorphological alterations in the liver and kidney suggested tissue damages due to this polluted water exposure. The brain acetylcholine...
