Copper is one of the most toxic metals for marine organisms. Biochemical changes occurring in the metabolically active tissues of gills (GL), hepatopancreas (HP) and muscles (MU) of the juvenile lobster, Panulirus homarus homarus on exposure to two sub-lethal doses (9.55 and 19.1 μg l) of copper were studied for 28 days of exposure (DoE). Sub-lethal doses of copper significantly (P<0.05) altere...
