Abstract:

Dimethylbenz (a) anthracene (EMBA), a carcinogen that requires metabolic activation to produce active metabolites capable of binding to DNA, has been studied in the trout and other fish. Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH) are of importance as they are ubiquitous in the environment and their carcinogenic effects in fish from contaminated...
