    Abstract:
    1. Juvenile rainbow trout were exposed to river water in a flow-through system. After 15 days of exposure, hepatic biotransformation activities and related parameters were measured and compared to those of the control group organisms that were maintained in tap water under identical experimental conditions. 2. Liver somatic index (LSI), microsomal protein and cytochrome P-450 contents, benzo[a]pyrene hydroxylase (AHH), ethoxyresorufin-O-deethylase (EROD) and UDP glucuronyl transferase activities were not significantly affected. 3. Aminopyrine-N-demethylase (APD) activity showed a slight yet significant increase in exposed trout.
