Preliminary evaluation of the acute toxicity of cypermethrin and lambda-cyhalothrin to Channa Punctatus

Abstract
In the present study, the acute toxicity of the pyrethroid pesticides, cypermethrin and lambda-cyhalothrin was conducted for a 96 h period using Channa punctatus. The LC(50) values of cypermethrin and lambda-cyhalothrin were found to be 0.4 mg/L and 7.92 mug/L, respectively. The lambda-cyhalothrin was found to be about 50 times more toxic to the fish than cypermethrin. The behavioral pattern of C. punctatus got severely altered in each group due to pesticide treatment. The results suggested that even at low concentrations, these pyrethroid compounds may exert toxic effects, markedly modifying their behavioral pattern.
