zIntroduction<\/strong><\/p>\n

Modern technologies have opened vast areas of research for the extraction of biomedical compounds from ocean & seas, because of high percentage of biomedical compounds exhibit substantial pharmacological activity.\u00a0 During the last 30 years, the field of marine natural product chemistry has provided to be a prolific source of novel biologically active compounds. In recent years, collaboration between chemists, biochemists & pharmacologists have seen the emergence of bioassay directed fractionation strategies as the most common route to the discovery of novel marine metabolites.<\/p>\n

India has total length of the coastline is around 8014 Km which includes coastline of two groups of oceanic islands namely Andaman and Nicobar and Lakshadweep. India possess a vast Exclusive Economic Zone of 20,13,410 Sq. Km and territorial waters of 1,55889 Sq Km. The Indian coast has a variety of sensitive ecosystem like lagoons, sand dunes, coral reefs, mangroves, sea grass beds and wetlands.1<\/sup>\u00a0Mumbai, the island city situated on west coast of India (between 18051\u2019 to 19033\u2019 N and long 72043\u2019 73001\u2019 E). Arabian Sea enriches the Mumbai with a shoreline of 100 Km. the coastal areas in and around Mumbai are biologically most productive areas supporting a wealth of marine resources.<\/p>\n

The Indian sub\u2011continent offers potential for pursuing marine biotechnology research for discovering novel biologically active compounds, which could be use in a large spectrum of human ailments and harvest bio resources for sustainable development with this context. Indian labs have concentrated on bioactive substances from marine animals such as horseshoe crab, green mussels, sponges and corals for characterization of novel molecules. The Department of Biotechnology (DBT) has been promoting marine biotechnology in India for the last one and half decade. Many R&D programs sponsored on marine biotechnology are leading towards products and process developments and development of a viable technology for the commercial production systems. The work carried out by NIO 2<\/sup> and others consist of bioactivity of the compounds collected from the coast of south and south \u2013 east India. \u00a0The \u00a0work has been reported by Venkateshvaran & Paniprasd 3<\/sup>\u00a0 CIFE Mumbai, & very scanty effort has gone into unraveling the details on the bioactive compounds by other researchers. However, Zodape and Kulkarni,4<\/sup>\u00a0Zodape et al.,5,<\/sup>6<\/sup> have\u00a0 isolated\u00a0 and characterized the bioactive compounds from Intertidal crab Leptodius exratus<\/em> collected from Nariman Point coast of west coast of Mumbai. They have also studied the antibacterial and pesticidal activities of the extract of Leptodius exratus<\/em> . Zodape and Berde 7<\/sup> have studied the pharmacological activities like antibacterial, antifungal, pesticidal properties of the crude extract, and isolated compounds from (fugu fish) Tetrodon oblongus<\/em> collected from west coast of Mumbai. Zodape 8<\/sup> isolated and characterized the bioactive compounds from intertidal crab Atergatis integerrimus<\/em>. Zodape,9<\/sup>\u00a0studied the antibacterial, antifungal and pesticidal activities of bioactive compounds of intertidal crab Atergatis integerrimus<\/em> (Lamark) of west coast of Mumbai and have concluded that, the Mumbai coast is under deterioration due to the presence of dinoflagellates and bacteria, which are eaten by the marine animals causing the presence of toxic compounds in the body of marine animals.\u00a0 Therefore, the present study has undertaken to explore the bioactive compounds from Tetraodon fluviatilis<\/em> of Mumbai coasts and its extract investigated for the presence pesticidal activities.<\/p>\n

Materials and Methods<\/strong><\/p>\n

Method of Collection <\/strong><\/p>\n

During low tide the specimens of fish was collected from Colaba (TIFR and NCPA) costal area. After collection, the fishes transported for acclimatization in glass aquarium (12 x 12 x 18 cm.) containing seawater collected from the site to the laboratory of Patkar College Goregaon (west), Mumbai during the monsoon season and acclimatized for 2 days at room temperature before use.<\/p>\n

Identification of Fish <\/strong><\/p>\n

The identification of the fishes was done at The Central Institute Of Fishery Research (CIFE) Versova Andheri Mimbai.<\/p>\n

Preparation of Crude Extract<\/strong><\/p>\n

After acclimatization, live fishes were selected and whole body, skin, liver and other body tissues dissected out. The dissected parts where weight and crushed separately in an equal volume of a mixture of methanol and acetic acid (w\/v). Finely crushed fishes homogenized with a mixture of 80% methanol and 1% acetic acid by heating in water bath at 50o<\/sup>C for half an hrs. The process repeated with more amount of methanol-acetic acid mixture (5ml) thrice. The supernatant solution decanted off and centrifuged at 3000 rpm for 20 minutes. The residue settled if any rejected and the clear supernatant solution placed in a separating funnel and extracted with dichloromethane to de-fat the solution. The upper clear de-fated aqueous solution was taken in a beaker and heated on a water bath 40-450<\/sup>C till solid obtained. This solid weighed and dissolved in 1% aqueous Tween- 80 solution such that the concentration of the solution corresponds to 1mg\/mL and stored in screw-capped vials in a refrigerator at -200<\/sup>C until further use.10<\/sup><\/p>\n

Extraction or Isolation of Bioactive Compounds<\/strong><\/p>\n

HPTLC performed on ‘CAMAG TLC’ system at Ancrom test lab Mulund (E) Mumbai. The stationary phase was pre coated Aluminium plates with a silica gel (60<\/sub> F254<\/sup>), and the mobile phase was butanol: methanol: water (3:1:1). Densitometric scanning performed at 254nm using Deutorium lamp. The development of spot was done using twin trough chamber. Preparative chromatographic separation was carried out using 0.5mm thick stationary phase and 5 5ml of the crude extract was spotted on a preparative TLC \u00a0and dried and kept in the saturated twin trough chamber containing butanol :methanol: water in the ratio of 3:1:1(v\/v) as a mobile phase and developed up to 9 cm length . The plate removed and dried. The development of the sample spots were done using twin trough chamber. The Deutorium lamp at 254 nm used for densitometric scanning of the samples. The four spots obtained. The spots scrapped off, dissolved in methanol, filtered, and evaporated to dryness to get pure compounds.<\/p>\n

All chemicals and solvents used were of analytical grade supplied by M\/S S.D. fine chemicals, Thane, (India).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
