Water Hardness Improves the Antioxidant Response of Zinc-Exposed Goldfish (<i>Carassius auratus</i>)
Zinc (Zn), a heavy metal, is an essential element in fish; however, exposure to high concentrations causes oxidative stress. Water hardness reduces oxidative stress reactions caused by heavy metals. To confirm the effect of water hardness on oxidative stress caused by Zn, goldfish were exposed to va...
