The use of herbicide in farming fields has a series of toxicological trouble. Atrazine is a commonly used herbicide and is vastly harm to non-target living beings. In the present research was expected to evaluate the impact of atrazine herbicide (1/10th of LC 50, 2.5ppm, 1/20th of LC 50, 1.25ppm and1/30th of LC 50, and 0.83ppm for 100 day) in Poecilia sphenops were studied on the basis of superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), glutathiones transferase (GST), reduced glutathione (GSH) and Lipid peroxidase (LPO). Changes in the antioxidant enzymes activity were seen in every single tried focus when contrasted and the control gathering. The general outcomes recommend atrazine is a strong toxicant to aquatic environment.
