ABSTRACT
The study investigating the acute toxicity and genotoxicity of industrial effluent from the brewery Company on juvenile Clarias gariepinus fishes has yielded significant insights into the potential environmental hazards associated with this effluent. The findings provide substantial evidence for the adverse effects of the effluent on aquatic life, particularly on the genetic integrity and survival of these fish species. The genotoxicity implies that the effluent contains substances capable of causing damage to the genetic material of the fish, which can have long-term implications for the population's health and viability. The mechanisms through which these genetic alterations occur should be further investigated to identify specific genotoxic agents and pathways involved. Swift action, further research, and responsible industrial practices are essential to mitigate these adverse effects and ensure the sustainability of aquatic ecosystems and public health in affected areas.
