• In this thesis, Anodonta anatina and Unio pictorum were exposed to a range of Chlorella vulgaris concentrations between 0.5 and 20.0 mg Ash Free Dry Mass (AFDM) l-1 at 11.0, 15.0 and 19.0 ± 1.0 °C in laboratory experiments. (derby.ac.uk)
  • In addition, the mean OC rate per dry soft-tissue mass (DM) increased with the algal concentration, with A. anatina showing a significantly higher rate. (derby.ac.uk)
  • 2017). Identification of distinct haemocyte populations from the freshwater bivalves swan mussel (Anodonta cygnea) and duck mussel (anodonta anatina) using wheat-germ agglutinin . (up.pt)
  • Specifically, freshwater mussels (Anodonta anatina) were acutely (96 h) exposed to Cu (13 nominal concentrations, measuring 0.13-1 600 µg/L), and transcripts were measured by RT-qPCR. (bvsalud.org)
  • Using a selection of molecular biomarkers, we evaluated responses in freshwater mussels (Anodonta anatina) exposed to effluent from an industrial wastewater treatment facility. (bvsalud.org)
  • Here, we assess the freshwater mussel Anodonta anatina as a biomarker model species for freshwater ecosystems, by testing responses of six transcriptional (cat, gst, hsp70, hsp90, mt, and sod) and two biochemical (AChE and GST) biomarkers to environmentally relevant Cu water concentrations.

  • We investigated the histopathological alterations in the tissues of freshwater mussel, Lamellidens marginalis in response to oil effluent. (austinpublishinggroup.com)
  • At seven-day intervals, histopathological alterations were analyzed in foot, gill and digestive gland tissues of mussel. (austinpublishinggroup.com)
  • Tissue burden by oil effluent of mussels completely were restored at 30th day. (austinpublishinggroup.com)
  • Tissue Hg levels remained elevated in mussels transferred to Hg-free seawater even after 21 days, despite the high concentrations persistently eliminated with pseudofaeces both, during and after, exposure. (silverchair.com)
  • Results did however show that (1) AChE activity increased by 40% in gills of exposed mussels compared to control, (2) hsp90 expression was 100% higher in exposed female gills compared to control, and (3) three marker signals (AChE in both tissues, and hsp70 in gills) differed between sexes, independent of treatment.

  • The cavity that exists between the mantle and other soft tissues is aptly named the mantle cavity. (wikipedia.org)
  • Use of the soft tissues and internal organs, often used for accurate determination of genera, requires the death of the animal and its careful preservation. (amnh.org)
  • The wide spectrum of histopathological changes has been identified in the internal organs and tissues of scallops: prokaryotic infection with prevalence 100%, destruction of digestive epithelium and other changes in digestive system, infiltration of organs by hemocytes and granulocytome formation.

  • Anodonta implicata, alewife floater. (amnh.org)
  • At second series of experiment, it was found that oil effluent tended to accumulate in tissues in a duration-dose-dependent manner. (austinpublishinggroup.com)
  • Incorporation of even very low levels of toxicants in the body of aquatic organisms causes various biochemical, physiological and hematological alterations in vital tissues [3]. (austinpublishinggroup.com)
  • Uptake and accumulation of xenobiotics in the tissues of aquatic organisms occur from the sediment, contaminated water column and food chain [2] that cause deleterious effects. (austinpublishinggroup.com)
  • Analysis of CBZ accumulation in tissues of C. edule was carried out using HPLC-UV after 48 or 96 hours of exposure. (scielo.br)
  • Histological changes appear as a medium-term response to sub-lethal stressors, and histology provides a rapid method to detect effects tissues and organs [10]. (austinpublishinggroup.com)
  • In contrast, four out of eight biomarkers (cat, gst, hsp70, and GST) showed a significant sex:tissue interaction, and additionally one (sod) showed significant overall effects from sex. (bvsalud.org)
  • For relatively small samples, representative examples of different tissues or even whole dissections can be fixed entire and maintained in fixative for extended periods whilst still yielding excellent results. (malacsoc.org.uk)
  • 2015). Immune response in the adipose tissue of lean mice infected with the protozoan parasite Neospora caninum . (up.pt)
  • Using a selection of molecular biomarkers, we evaluated responses in freshwater mussels (Anodonta anatina) exposed to effluent from an industrial wastewater treatment facility. (bvsalud.org)
  • Specifically, freshwater mussels (Anodonta anatina) were acutely (96 h) exposed to Cu (13 nominal concentrations, measuring 0.13-1 600 µg/L), and transcripts were measured by RT-qPCR. (bvsalud.org)
  • Its consequences on calcium homeostasis, soluble carbohydrate and protein levels in various tissues, metallothionein induction, glutathione levels, activities of antioxidative enzymes and glutathione reductase, and on lipid peroxidation are examined. (uni-bayreuth.de)
