Selection of biochemical and physiological parameters in the croaker Micropogonias furnieri as biomarkers of chemical contamination in estuaries using a generalized additive model (GAM)

Abstract

Biochemical and physiological parameters in the croaker Micropogonias furnieri were evaluated as biomarkers of chemical contaminants in estuaries. Juvenile croakers (10-20 cm total body length) were collected in summer and winter (2011 and 2012), in two sites at the Lagoa dos Patos estuary (southern Brazil). Fish were also collected in summer (2011 and 2012) in one site at the Barra do Chui estuary (southern Brazil). Tissue (gills, muscle or …
