    Environ Pollut 153:169-75. 2008
    ..Finally, gill EROD activity in cod caged for 6 weeks at 500-10 000 m from two platforms outside Norway was measured. The activities in these fish were very low and did not differ from those in fish caged at reference sites...
  2. ncbi A bioassay approach to determine the dioxin-like activity in sediment extracts from the Danube River: ethoxyresorufin-O-deethylase induction in gill filaments and liver of three-spined sticklebacks (Gasterosteus aculeatus L.)
    Jens C Otte
    Department of Environmental Toxicology, Evolutionary Biology Centre, Uppsala University, Uppsala, Sweden
    Environ Int 34:1176-84. 2008
    ..Implementation of the EROD assay in testing of sediment extracts gave highly reliable results which make this assay an ecotoxicologically relevant method for assessment of contamination with Ah receptor agonists in sediments...

    Department of Environmental Toxicology, Uppsala University, Norbyvagen 18A, SE 752 36 Uppsala, Sweden
    Chemosphere 81:156-60. 2010
    ..Our finding that HS of both natural and synthetic origin induce EROD activity in the gill is of significance for the interpretation of biomonitoring data on EROD activity as well as for the choice of suitable reference waters...

    Aquat Toxicol 85:1-8. 2007
    ..In the kidney, CYP1A staining was weak or absent. We conclude that gill EROD activity is a more sensitive biomarker of exposure to waterborne CYP1A inducers than EROD activity in liver and kidney...

    Maria Jonsson
    Department of Environmental Toxicology, Centre for Reproductive Biology in Uppsala, Uppsala University, Sweden
    Comp Biochem Physiol C Toxicol Pharmacol 136:235-43. 2003
    ..Assessment of gill filament EROD activity in fish exposed to polluted water and sediments in the laboratory proved to be an easy and cost-effective way to survey pollution with dioxin-like chemicals...
