  1. Percentage distribution of enzymes and protein in brown trout liver fractions. B – crude mitochondrial / lysosomal fraction; D – crude peroxisomal fraction; E – crude microsomal fraction; F – cytosolic fraction. Data are a mean from 6 fishes and the coefficients of variation are given in brackets.
