Can environmental factors increase oxidative responses in fish exposed to polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs)?
Relations among polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), biomarkers of oxidative stress (lipid peroxidation, glutathione, and glutathione S-transferase activity), and the possible influence of environmental factors (temperature, pH, and salinity) were assessed in situ for specimens of Ramnogaster ar...

Summary: | Relations among polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), biomarkers of oxidative stress (lipid peroxidation, glutathione, and glutathione S-transferase activity), and the possible influence of environmental factors (temperature, pH, and salinity) were assessed in situ for specimens of Ramnogaster arcuata, a native estuarine fish. PAH levels found in the muscular tissue of R. arcuata ranged from 0.7 to 293.4 ng g−1 wet weight with petrogenic and pyrolytic inputs. Lipid peroxidation in the liver showed positive correlations (P |
