Relative levels of CYP1A protein in liver cytosol from pesticide-exposed Chinook salmona

Pesticide Concentration (μg/l)b Average ± S.D.c Ranged
Controle 0 1710 ± 310 1.7
Chlorpyrifos Solventf 2060 ± 440 2.6
1.2 1960 ± 360 1.9
7.3 1480 ± 560* 4.3
Esfenvalerate Solvent 1600 ± 430 2.5
0.01 1390 ± 500 4.2
0.10 1460 ± 420 1.6
a

Juvenile Chinook salmon were exposed to the indicated concentration of pesticide for 96 h as described in Section 2. All treatment groups were statistically similar to untreated controls (P < 0.05).

b

Esfenvalerate concentrations are nominal values and chlorpyrifos concentrations are measured.

c

Relative CYP1A protein levels are the average ± the standard deviation (S.D.) for 10 fish (n = 10), except for the 7.3 μg/l chlor-pyrifos exposure (n = 8).

d

Range values are given as the fold difference in relative protein levels between the lowest and highest individuals.

e

Control fish were not exposed to either pesticides or vehicle and did not go through the experimental testing regimen.

f

Solvent fish were exposed to the highest concentration of vehicle (0.005% MeOH) and went through the full 96 h testing regimen.

*

Statistically different from the solvent-exposed salmon (P < 0.05).
