Abstract
The present investigation was designed to evaluate the dangerous effects of the Pb and Hg on Clarias gariepinus inhabiting Lake Mariout and assay the possible protective effect of meso-2, 3 dimercaptosuccinic acid (DMSA). The test fish were divided into four groups kept in plastic tanks (20 fish each) containing 30L of Lake Mariout water. Group (1): Standard group (zero time); Group (2): Unexposed DMSA group, Group (3): Low dose DMSA group; Group (4): High dose DMSA group. Fish exposed to DMSA showed significant decrease in lead (P≤0.05)  and  mercury concentrations (P≤0.05) in kidney, liver, gills, muscle and blood than unexposed group. The present results clearly indicate a significant decrease in RBCs, Hb, Hct, and platelet counts while a significant  increase in MCH, MCHC, and WBCs in the Clarias gariepinus collected from the main basin of Lake Mariout. A marked significant decrease in AST, ALT, urea, creatinine  (P≤0.05) was observed in DMSA groups. A significant increase in CAT, GPX and SOD was observed after exposure to DMSA. In addition, DMSA exposure improved the histopathological alterations in fish liver and kidney.
