Abstract
In this study, rainbow trout was exposed to temephos (TE) during 96h acute toxicity conditions. The toxic compound was given in doses of 3 mg L-1 and 6 mg L-1. Furthermore, we assessment antioxidant enzymes activity (glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD), catalase (CAT), glutathione reductase (GR), superoxide dismutase (SOD), malondialdehyde (MDA) level in liver and acetylcholinesterase (AChE) in brain. CAT, SOD, GR, G6PD, and MDA in liver were demonstrated significant effects by the treatments (P<0.05). TE exposure resulted in the inhibition of AChE activity, which, compared with the control group, decreased in all doses (P<0.05). The results showed that temephos inhibited liver tissue’s enzyme activities and increased MDA levels. In the light of these data, we can say that temephos toxicity should be taken into consideration in aquatic environments.
