The study was conducted to investigate the responses of the hepatic microsomal cytochrome P450 monooxygenase system in the rock bream Oplegnathus fasciatus after chronic exposure to 0, 1, 2, 4, and $8{mu}g/L$ tributyltin (TBT) concentrations for 4 weeks. Hepatic cytochrome 450 content and ethoxyresorufin O-deethylation (EROD) activity were found to significantly increase in fish treated with the higher concentration of TBT (${geq}4{mu}g/L$); however, no significant changes were observed in penthoxyresorufin O-deethylation (PROD) activity in all treated groups compared to the control group. These findings suggest that exposure to a low TBT concentration (${geq}4{mu}g/L$) has the potential to induce cytochrome 450 content and EROD enzyme activity in hepatic tissue in the rock bream.
