Abstract
The effect of concurrent repeated exposure of higher concentrations of lead and
endosulfan were evaluated on certain biochemical parameters in male wistar rats. Rats of
group I served as untreated control where as Group II received drinking water containing
lead as lead acetate @1000 ppm (Pb1000). Group III was exposed to feed containing
technical grade endosulfan @ 10 ppm (E100). Group IV was exposed to Pb (1000) +E (100).
Blood and target organs were collected for estimation of biochemical parameters to assess
toxicity by combination of these two chemicals at higher doses. The results suggest that
higher doses of endoulfan and lead alone and in combination may modify general
biochemical parameters carried out in the study.
