To investigate the effect of increasing concentration (volume/volume ratio) of malathion
(0.1%,0.2%,0.3%,0.4%,0.5%) an insecticide, on the total chlorophyll content measured
through a spectrophotometer at 630,691,664 and 647nm, total carotenoid content, measured
at 470nm, and percentage inhibition on electron transport, measured by the rate of
decolorization of DCPIP at 600nm, of Elodea canadensis.
