Abstract
The results of the comparative study of molecular biomarkers of oxidative stress and biotransformation of some representatives of the families Cyprinidae and Mugilidae from estuaries of rivers which enter Peter the Great Bay are presented. The haarder mullet Liza haematocheila is used as an indicator species for monitoring the degree of environmental pollution. The basic values of biochemical parameters in different organs of haarder mullet and their seasonal variations have been determined. A significant increase in the concentration of glutathione and activity of glutathione-S-transferase in fish from the Razdolnaya River has been found on the basis of the comparison of the functional state of haarder mullet in estuaries of the Razdolnaya and Amba rivers, which differ in the degree of anthropogenic load.
