Figure 2. DNA damage in response to BaP treatment in adults from King’s Creek and Atlantic Wood Superfund Site.

Figure 2

DNA damage in response to i.p. injection of corn oil or 10 mg/kg BaP treatment were measured in liver (A), muscle (B), and brain (C) of adult killifish. BaP-treated group in the King’s Creek population exhibited higher levels of DNA damage compared to the control group (p < 0.001). No differences were seen in the Elizabeth River population. Open bars indicate mtDNA, and closed bars indicate nDNA. * indicates significant difference (p < 0.05) compared to the control group. Error bars represent standard error of means.
