Lipid peroxidative stress and antioxidant defence status during ontogeny of rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss)

The objective of the present study was to characterise some important antioxidant enzymes and their relationships with retinoids and lipid peroxidation during rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) early development. Eggs were incubated at 7 degrees C until the swim-up stage whereupon fry were fed two semi-purified diets with 0% (CO) and 8% (OX) oxidised lipid respectively for 2 months at 17 degrees C. The activities and gene expression of...
