The cardiotonic activity of Heteropneustes fossilis fish extract was examined on a frog intact heart and then pharmacologically performed on 20 mice without plant extract as well as with a combination of plant extract, which gave a remarkable synergistic activity in an in-vivo experiment on mice kept tied for the duration of 12, 18, and 24.

Chapter IX Trophic Structure of the Reservoir Any reservoir after formation passes through three distinct phases-initial high fertility, trohpic depression and final fertility. The newly formed reservoir inundates vast areas of forest and agricultural land and consequently decay of submerged vegetation releasing nutrients causes initial fertility leading to intense development of fish food.
