An Analytic Contemplation of the Conspicuous Vicissitudes in the Histomorphology of Corpuscles of Stannius of a Freshwater Catfish Mystus tengara (Hamilton, 1822) due to the Exposure of ZnS Nanoparticles

Table 1

Parameters used for fitting of the straight lines to the experimental data showing the variation of the ratio percentage of the number density of cells in CS (ξ) of Mystus tengara with increasing ZnS nanoparticle concentration (σ) for a fixed exposure time ( = 60 days) keeping nanoparticle size () as a parameter and the correlation coefficients between ξ and σ for a fixed .
