Evaluation of the antioxidant response in liver of carp (Cyprinus carpio) injected intraperitoneally with concentrated drinking water from local aquifers

Two drinking-water production plants located in North Italy collecting water from the local aquifers were chosen for this study and chlorine dioxide was used as disinfectant at both plants (plant 1 and plant 2). Drinking water samples were collected in different pipeline sites, concentrated and then injected intraperitoneally at a concentration of 3 L/equiv. in Cyprinus carpio.

Total glutathione, glutathione peroxidase, glutathione reductase, catalase, glutathione S-transferase, glyoxalases were evaluated in cytosolic fractions of carp liver after 3 and 6 days. An oxidative stress condition was recorded in carp from both water plants, but particularly in those from water plant 1 (all collecting sites), in which was found a lowering of the antioxidant defences. The presence of  by-products, generated using the chlorinated disinfectant ClO2, and other contaminants in this water, might be responsible for the observed biological responses in carp liver.
