Abstrakt: This study investigated several immunophysiological indices of the round goby Neogobius melanostomus (Pallas, 1814), which inhabits Caucasian coastal waters of the Black Sea with different levels of anthropogenic load. Fish specimens caught in areas of a high level of pollution differed significantly from fish from pure water areas in low indices of antimicrobial properties of the blood serum, antioxidant activity, and phospholipid contents, and, in contrast, by high levels of immune complexes, total lipids, triacylglycerols, and malonic dialdehyde.
