Oxidative stress biomarkers in Clarias gariepinus (Burchel, 1822) exposed to Microcystin-LR
Stress levels inflicted by microcystin-LR extracted from Microcystis aeruginosa were assessed by estimating
the effects on the oxidative stress biomarkers in the liver, muscle and gill tissues of Clarias gariepinus.
Microcystin-LR was administered to the fish by injection into their intra-peritoneal cavity. Microcystin-
LR induced the activities of mainly Glutathione-S-Transferase (GST),...
