In the Ebro River basin, point and diffuse pollution of heavy metals stems mainly from
industry and agriculture. Bioaccumulation patterns were examined under different pollution …

Mercury uptake and its effects on physiology, biochemistry and genomic stability were
investigated in Lemna minor after 2 and 6 d of exposure to 0–30 μM Hg. The accumulation …

Mercury (Hg) is a well-known toxic element, diffused in the environment, especially in the
Mediterranean Sea which is rich in cinnabar deposits. Mercury bioaccumulation in fish is of …

Large amounts of industrial waste containing high concentrations of mercury, cadmium and
organochlorine residues were dumped in a reservoir adjacent to a chlorine-alkali plant in …

One of benthic organisms exposed to contact with mercury in the southern Baltic is alien
species of clam: Dreissena polymorpha. As this organism is increasingly dynamic in various …

Abstract The low Ebro River basin (NE Spain) represents a particular case of chronic and
long-term mercury pollution due to the presence of an industrial waste (up to 436 μg/g of Hg) …
