Mercuric chloride induced alterations in the intestinal transport of glucose and fructose in the fresh water murrel Channa punctatus
Tóm tắt
The effect of five concentrations of mercuric chloride (10 mM, 5 mM, 1 mM, 0.5 mM, and 0.l mM) on the uptake of glucose and fructose from the intestine of the fresh water murrel Channa punctatus after 15, 30 and 60 min was studied. Intestinal glucose and fructose transport was also assessed in fish exposed to a sublethal concentration (3 μg l−1) of mercuric chloride for 10 and 30 days. The results show that the uptake of glucose and fructose from the intestine was reduced by all five concentrations of mercuric chloride. Maximum reduction was observed after 60 min of exposure to 10 mM mercuric chloride. The rate of absorption of glucose and fructose increased with time in controls and in all concentrations of mercury except the highest concentration (10 mM) where the rate of absorption decreased gradually. The reduction in the rate of absorption of the two sugars was not dependent on the concentration of mercury in the instilled medium. In fish exposed to mercuric chloride in laboratory media, the reduction of glucose and fructose absorption was greater after 30 days of exposure than after 10 days.
