The goal of this work was to evaluate the response of the glutathione-S-transferases (GST), glutathione reductase (GR) and catalase (CAT) enzymes in different tissues of the fish Australoheros facetus exposed cadmium (Cd). In liver, a significant decrease of GST activity was observed at 0.05 mg L-1 (p
