Abstract:

Data are presented on the level of Glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) in the liver of Oreochromis niloticus exposed for 10 weeks to sublethal concentration of cadmium. The fish samples were obtained from Waddi Haniffa Riyadh Saudi Arabia between March and July 2008. specrtophotometric method was used to determine the activities of enzyme. High concentration of cadmium with long exposure time causes low (GSH-Px) activities. (P>0.05). the possibility of detecting environmental pollution by monitoring glutathione peroxidase concentrations or the activity of glutathione peroxidase depend enzymes in fishes is discussed.
