Tóm tắt

Human activities contaminate aquatic ecosystems with chemicals like metals and pesticides. Fish, sensitive to pollution, are key toxicological models. Metallothionein (Mt) expression, a biomarker for metal contamination, varies depending on the chemical exposure. This study investigated differences in metal affinity for Zn
