Influences of organic pollutants in water on antioxidant enzyme in zebra fish

Abstract

Zebra fish was used as testing animal to be stimulated by the organic solvents (phonel and bisphonel A).The superoxide dismutase(SOD) and catalase (CAT) were used as biomarker to study the influence of organic contaminants in water (phenol and bisphonel A) on the autioxidant enzyme activities of zebra fish. Research results indicated that the activities of SOD and CAT increased with time under the low concentration of phonel, and the trend became stronger along increased concentrations. The activities of SOD increased at the initial period and then decreased with time and concentration increasing in water containing bisphonel A. However, for the activities of CAT, with time and its concentration increasing, the variation trend became weaker.
