Eutrophication likely prompts metal bioaccumulation in edible clams

Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety, 2021
Coastal eutrophication is an indisputable reality and becoming a worldwide concern. However, whether and how eutrophication affects metal bioaccumulation in marine bivalves have not yet been elucidated. Here, we present the potential influence of coastal

Bioaccumulation of polybrominated diphenyl ethers by Tubifex tubifex

Acta Chimica Slovenica, 2016
Selective uptake of PBDEs by oligochaete allows the assessment of the bioaccumulation of individual congeners in commercial mixtures. 21 congeners from three BDE commercial mixtures (TBDE-71, TBDE-79 and TBDE-83R) and as individual congeners (BDE-77, BDE-

Bioconcentration as a key driver of Hg bioaccumulation in high-trophic-level fish [PDF]

Biogeosciences
The ability of monomethylmercury (MMHg+) to bioaccumulate in seafood is of concern due to its neurotoxic properties. The challenge in understanding MMHg+ bioaccumulation lies in the fact that its levels in higher trophic levels result from both ...

BIOACCUMULATION DYNAMICS OF HEAVY METALS IN _{Oreochromis nilotycus}: PREDICTED THROUGH A BIOACCUMULATION MODEL CONSTRUCTED BASED ON BIOTIC LIGAND MODEL (BLM)

Indonesian Journal of Chemistry, 2010
In estuarine ecosystem, sediments are not only functioning as heavy metal scavenger, but also as one of potential sources for heavy metals to the ecosystem. Due the capability of aquatic organisms to accumulate heavy metals, there is possibility of heavy

Systematic Review of Nano- and Microplastics’ (NMP) Influence on the Bioaccumulation of Environmental Contaminants: Part II—Freshwater Organisms

Toxics, 2023
Nano- and microplastic fragments (NMPs) exist ubiquitously in all environmental compartments. The literature-based evidence suggests that NMPs interact with other environmental contaminants in freshwater ecosystems through sorption mechanisms, thereby ...
