Biomarkers of waterborne copper exposure in the Neotropical fish Prochilodus lineatus

Abstract

The main goal of the present study was to investigate the effects of acute exposure to copper (Cu) using a Neotropical freshwater fish as sentinel species through multi biomarkers analysis at different biological levels. Juveniles of Prochilodus lineatus were kept under control condition (no Cu addition in the water) or exposed to environmentally relevant concentrations of waterborne Cu (5, 9 and 20μgL(-1)) for 96h. These concentrations were …
