Abstract

The comparative studies of glutathione S-transferase (GST) activity were performed on liver, muscles, kidneys and gills of pike (Esoxlucius L.), whitefish (Coregonus lavaretus L.) and roach (Rutilus rutilus L.) from a reference lake and the polluted mining factory lake. Species and age variability was also investigated. GST activity was found to be altered in the polluted area compared with the reference lake. We supposed that the altered GST activity is probably a metabolic adaptation of fish tissues to primarily mineral contamination.
