The p53 gene is a tumour suppressor gene which has a fundamental role in cell cycle control and division, and in mammals certain genotoxic agents induce specific mutations in p53, leading to tumourigenesis. Fish have been investigated as models for studying carcinogens, but as yet very little data e

## Abstract 1. The term biomarker refers to the physiological, biochemical, and histological changes used as indicators of exposure to chemical contaminants and/or of its effects at the suborganismal or organismal level. Recently the development of sensitive biochemical markers for monitoring envir
Standard tests for the detection of hidden pcriodicitics in time series are largely ignored by applied workers. Various simple but inappropriate methods are used instead. Therefore a method is suggested which is both simple and appropriate but which requires the prior knowledge of certain characteri
