Aquatic invertebrates take up and accumulate trace metals whether essential or non-
essential, all of which have the potential to cause toxic effects. Subsequent tissue and body …

Over the past decades, comparative physiology and biochemistry approaches have played
a significant role in understanding the complexity of metal bioaccumulation in aquatic …

Large volumes of produced water are generated and discharged to the coastal and ocean
waters worldwide from offshore oil and gas production facilities. There is concern that the …

We use published data on the different patterns of the bioaccumulation of zinc by three
crustaceans, the caridean decapod Palaemon elegans, the amphipod Orchestia …

Crustaceans, like all aquatic invertebrates, take up and accumulate metals from a wide
range of sources and the trace metal concentrations within their tissues and bodies show …

As part of a SETAC Pellston Workshop, we evaluated the potential use of metal tissue
residues for predicting effects in aquatic organisms. This evaluation included consideration …

Polychaete worms (Hediste diversicolor) originating from a strongly metal-contaminated
area (Restronguet Creek) and a relatively clean site (Blackwater estuary) were exposed to a …

This paper reviews recent studies on the influence of trace metal exposure history on
subsequent metal uptake in marine invertebrates, particularly bivalves and barnacles. Trace …

Abstract Green crabs (Carcinus, Portunidae) include two species native to Europe—
Carcinus aestuarii (Mediterranean species) and Carcinus maenas (Atlantic species). These …

Cadmium and zinc uptake from the dissolved phase, assimilation efficiency from the dietary
phase, efflux rate constants, and body burden as well as clearance rate were measured in …
