title: Effect of water pollution in Sevastopol bays (Black Sea) on histopathological and oxidative stress biomarkers of black scorpionfish Scorpaena porcus
abstract: In two of the bays, Streletskaya Bay and Balaklavskaya Bay (Sevastopol, Black Sea), historically affected by various kinds of anthropogenic activity, we assessed environmental pollution using liver, gonads, and gill histopathological indicators and antioxidant biomarkers in black scorpionfish Scorpaena porcus L. The results show several differences in histological alterations across the liver, gills, and gonads, as well as in blood antioxidant enzymes (superoxide dismutase, peroxidase, catalase,
