Abstract
The paper deals with impact of toxic pollution on activity of energy and ion exchange enzymes in roach and perch. Significant changes in content of energy substrates in liver, gills and muscles of perch and roach were established depending on season and toxic load. The glycogen content in liver of perch specimens from the polluted lake (Kyrilivske) was lower than in specimens from the control lake (Babyne). Also, lower activity of SDH in muscles and gills of roach has been established. It should be noted that roach was characterized by higher variability of the studied enzymes' activity. This indicates the species specificity of the metabolic reactions of the studied fishes to counteract toxic pollution.
期刊介绍:
This journal contains translations from the premier Russian and Eastern European periodicals in aquatic biology and aquatic ecosystems, supplemented by original articles from elsewhere. The journal publishes in the area of physiology, biochemistry, systematics, ecology and conservation of freshwater fish, invertebrates, vascular plants, zoo- and phytoplankton, as well as freshwater quality and toxicology. While most of the papers deal with inland waters, the journal also publishes articles reporting on expeditionary work, especially the Antarctic and tropical seas. Hydrobiological Journal is valuable to freshwater and marine biologists and chemists, limnologists, environmental scientists, oceanographers, and toxicologists.
