Identification of Lampricide Formulations as a Potent Inducer of MFO Activity in Fish
Abstract
White sucker caged in a Lake Superior tributary during a lampricide application showed marked induction of hepatic mixed function oxygenase (MFO) enzymes. Laboratory trials (0.5-5.8mg L−1, 24h exposure) with rainbow trout confirmed that field formulations of lampricides induce MFO activity. When the two primary components of the lampricide formulation were tested separately, MFO induction was associated with the 3-trifluoromethyl-4-nitrophenol …
