Abstract
► We examine the energetic costs of exposure to PCBs in an in vivo and in vitro model. ► Rainbow trout are shown to mobilize glucose upon exposure to PCB 126. ► Rainbow trout hepatocytes have impaired mitochondrial respiration upon exposure to PCB 77. ► Impaired mitochondrial respiration may mask increases in whole animal energy demand.
