Abstract
The present work is concerned with the effect of heavy metal pollutant, mercuric chloride induced hematological alterations in freshwater fish Labeo rohita Mercuric chloride after a short term and long-term exposure to induced significant changes at sub lethal concentration. The results showed a decrease in parameters like RBC, WBC and Hb at short term exposure while WBC increased during long term exposure.
