Figure 3

Changes in enzyme activities in mussels exposed to hypoxia. Mussels were exposed to 2 mg/L dissolved oxygen (DO 2) for 24, 48, and 72 h. CAT, GST, and SOD activities, and LPO levels were measured. The relative enzyme activity is indicated on the Y-axis, and the exposure duration (h) is on the X-axis. (a) CAT activity changes in mussels exposed to hypoxia; (b) GST activity changes in mussels exposed to hypoxia; (c) SOD activity changes in mussels exposed to hypoxia; (d) LPO level changes in mussels exposed to hypoxia. Asterisk denotes significant difference from the control group (p < 0.05).
