Abstract
⺠GST and SOD activities have been studied for the first time in mussels from Ushuaia Bay. ⺠LPO levels were higher in areas receiving urban wastewaters. ⺠Biomarkers and heavy metals were seasonally affected, probably associated to reproductive cycle. ⺠Superoxide dismutase activity was induced by heavy metals. ⺠Catalase activity would be the best biomarker considering that it was seasonal independent.
