SOME IMMUNOBIOCHEMICAL INDICES IN CARASSIUS CARASSIUS EXPOSED TO SUBLETHAL CONCENTRATIONS OF ZINK IONS
Investigation results are reported on immunobiochemical indices in carassius carassius at a chronic exposure to sub-lethal Zink ions concentrations. In blood serum and liver, the following characteristics were investigated: antimicrobial properties, proportion of immune- deficient animals, content of non specific immune complexes, common lipids level, content of lipids peroxidation products and antioxidant activity. The relation between magnitudes of indices under investigation in fishes and the duration of their presence under experimental conditions is shown.
