Lanthanum (La) is one of the most abundant emergent rare earth elements. Its release into
the environment is enhanced by its use in various industrial applications. In the aquatic …

It is well known that many anoxia/hypoxia tolerant species when exposed to anoxia/hypoxia
respond by increasing the activity/expression of antioxidant enzymes and/or glutathione …

We investigated the physiological changes in scallops (Chlamys farreri) during semi-
anhydrous living-preservation using metabolomics method to obtain a guiding theory in …

Bivalves have been promoted as healthy food in many countries. Yet, little information is
available about bivalve consumers' purchasing behaviour and attitudes. The aim of this …

Abstract Limnoperna fortunei (Dunker, 1857) is a freshwater mussel with physiological
tolerance to different environmental conditions, which may explain its success as an …

A battery of biochemical and immunological biomarkers used for pollution assessment were
measured for first time in the clams Venus verrucosa and Callista chione and were …

The frequency and intensity of anoxic and hypoxic events are increasing worldwide, creating
stress on the organisms that inhabit affected waters. To understand the effects of low …

Bivalves influence both the ecology and the economy of coastal regions. By filter-feeding on
particles in the water column, these organisms reduce turbidity and link benthic and pelagic …

This work aims to diagnose the state of the northeastern coasts of Tunisia using P.
articulatus species. Biological parameters, protein and metallothionein content, enzymatic …

In this study a suppression subtractive hybridisation method was employed to identify
differentially expressed genes of the clam Venerupis philippinarum exposed to benzo (a) …
