Fig. 6. Oxidative stress markers in Z. viviparus liver samples after 2 h
of exposure to 18°C as well as after 2, 8 or 12 h of recovery (recov.).
(A) Tert-butyl hydroperoxide (tBOOH)-initiated chemiluminescence, indicating
imbalance between pro- and antioxidant processes. (B) Carbonyl content,
indicating protein oxidation. Values are means ± s.d., N=3-5;
*significantly different from the unstressed group,
P<0.05.
