- Title
Effect of anthropogenic pollution on oxidative processes in the liver of fish from the Rybinsk Reservoir.

- Abstract
The levels of total lipids, peroxidation products, and antioxidant activity in the liver were studied in fish species living in unequally polluted areas of the Rybinsk Reservoir and differing in their ecology and taxonomic position: the bream ( Abramis brama L.), roach ( Rutilus rutilus L.), burbot ( Lota lota L.), and zander ( Stizostedion lucioperca L.). The fish from polluted water areas were characterized by higher levels of total lipids and malonic dialdehyde and a deficiency of antioxidants. It is shown that the test parameters depend on the type of feeding and mode of life of the fish species.
