Abstract

The electrophoretic patterns of lactate dehydrogenase showed varied distribution
of the isozymes in four selected tissues of T. mossambica (Peters). The
studies suggest that there are two sub-units which, on random comibination, give
rise to five isozymes. The qualitative nature and mobility of the isozymatic patterns
of each tissue remained unaltered except for a slight reduction in the intensity
of bands under subacute methyl parathion toxicity. However, a decrease in quantitative
levels Of LDH, measured by colorimetry, corroborates a fall in intensity
of all isozymes. The significance of the results are discussed in relation to physiological
stress leading to a manifestation of phenomenon simulating anaerobiosis.
