One of the fundamentals in the ecotoxicological studies is the need of data comparison,
which can be easily reached with the help of a standardized biological model. In this context …

Heat shock proteins (hsps) are induced by a wide range of environmental stressors
including heavy metals in aquatic organisms. However, the effect of heavy metals on …

In the present study, we investigated the progressive acclimation of the mussel Mytilus
galloprovincialis to different reduced seawater (SW) salinities and its effect on several …

Cadmium (Cd) is one of the most deleterious heavy metals in aquatic systems that could
promote oxidative damage. To explore the effects of Cd exposure of a freshwater crab …

Pharmaceutical compounds are considered the new environmental pollutants but at present
few studies have evaluated their ecotoxicity on aquatic invertebrates. This study was aimed …

The objective of this study was to identify the relationship between cadmium (Cd) and stress
responses in the clam Mactra veneriformis. Metallothionein (MT) and Cu–Zn superoxide …

Acute effects of heavy metal ions on shrimp have been an area of intense study worldwide.
However, the molecular mechanism by which cadmium-induced injury occurs remains …

The oxidation of DNA and lipid was analysed in the marine mussel (Mytilus edulis) in
response to exposure (10μg/l and 200μg/l) to cadmium (Cd) and chromium [Cr (VI)] …

Methylmercury (MeHg) is a concerning environmental pollutant that bioaccumulates and
biomagnifies in the aquatic food web. However, the effects of MeHg on marine zooplankton …

The effects of cadmium (Cd) and arsenic (As), dosed alone or in combination have been
poorly investigated in crustaceans. Besides, it is not known if dietary supplementation of …
