Abstract
Streptomycin is increasingly being used to treat human diseases. Recently, its toxic effects on aquatic organisms have attracted global attention. The aim of this study was to investigate the toxic effects of streptomycin on zebrafish by measuring T-AOC and CAT activity. Zebrafish were exposed to four different volume concentrations of streptomycin wastewater and their T-AOC and CAT activities were measured at 3, 6, 9, 12 and 15 days. T-AOC activity shows an inverted “N” trend, and T-AOC activity reached the maximum (1.90U·mgprot−1) on the 12th days. Furthermore, The CAT activity shows “M” tendency, and concentrations of streptomycin can affect CAT activity. Streptomycin wastewater induced oxidative stress in Zebrafish muscle tissue.
