The effect of ascorbic acid and pesticides (thiotox and malathion) on certain haematological parameters of a fish Saccobranchus fossilis was studied. The sublethal concentrations of thiotox (0.002 mg/l) and of malathion (5.2 mg/l) were tested. Ascorbic acid (2 mg/100 g body weight) was given with food. The alterations in haematological parameters (CT, PT, Hb, RBC, WBC, ESR, PCV, MCH, MCHC, MCV, glucose, protein, total P, Na, K, Mg, Ca, and Cl) were measured after 15 and 30 days exposure. Thiotox and malathion induced significant alteration in blood parameters while ascorbic acid played a protective role.
