Excretion of the electrophilic intermediates as conjugated derivatives has been well identified in terrestial mammals as well as in marine species. All marine species investigated are able to conjugate the oxide intermediates to GSH-derivatives (Bend etaL, 1977). Generally, invertebrates show lower activity than vertebrates. In addition, wide variation in glutathione-S-transferase activity has been observed beween species and substrates used. Reasonable experimental evidence now exists for the enzyme-mediated biotransformation of petroleum hydrocarbons in several marine fish and invertebrate species. [Pg.127]
