This article focuses on the bluegill cell culture system as a model for assessing the impact of aquatic pollution and determining the effects of selenium on higher vertebrates. An in vitro study using bluegill sunfish (Lepomis macrochirus) kidney phagocytes was undertaken to investigate the effects of selenium on hydrogen peroxide induced oxidative injury. This study was undertaken as more information is needed to better understand the paradoxical nature of selenium in vertebrate systems and the delicate balance which exists between oxidant-induced stress and the antioxidant defense system. |
