Biomarker responses of Cu-induced toxicity in European seabass Dicentrarchus labrax: Assessing oxidative stress and histopathological alterations

The results show that the combination of oxidative stress parameters, particularly lipid peroxidation and glutathione peroxidase activities, and histopathological alterations provide a good model fish and reliable early biomarkers for monitoring Cu pollution in seawater and might call for the protection agencies to revise the Cu environmental standards.
