This study was designed as a part of efforts to investigate the biochemical pollutant markers for diagnosis of marine pollutions by changes in oxygen radicals and their scavenger enzymes of the flounder (Paralichthys olivaceus) in the South Sea of Korea. Protein contents in brain and muscle of cultured flounder in the South Sea were remarkably lower ($19~42\%$ and $25~41\%$, respectively) than those of wild flounder in Pohang of the East Sea as a control group. Lipid Peroxide (LPO) levels in serum of cultured in the South Sea were considerably higher ($5~33\%$) Elan those of wild flounder in Pohang. Hydroxyl radical formations in serum of cultured flounders in the South Sea were lower ($4~25\%$) than those of wild flounders in Pohang. Superoxide dismutase (SOD) activities in serum of cultured flounders in South Sea were also significantly lower ($7~31\%$) than those of wild flounders in Pohang. It is believed that significant decrease of protein contents in brain and muscle, and remarkable increases of LPO in serum of cultured flounders may be used as a biochemical pollutant markers for diagnosis of marine pollutions. These results suggest that near-coastal water as well as neritic water of the South Sea might be affected by pollutant input as well as the Yellow Sea of Korea.
