Abstract
Changes in the glycogen (polysaccharide) content in Hepatopancreas and muscles of the fresh water fish, Rasbora daniconius were studied. When subjected to increasing concentration of endosulfan (organochlorine insecticide) and the time period of exposure to different sublethal concentrations, a decrease in glycogen content was observed in both the tissues which indicates the possible arrival of pesticidal toxicity.
