Bivalve Immunity

2010
Bivalves are comprised of animals unclosed in two shell valves, such as mussels oysters, scallops and clams. There are about 7,500 bivalve species and some ofthem are of commercial importance. Recently, interest in bivalve immunity has increased due to the importance in worldwide aquaculture and their role in aquatic environmental science and their ...

Cretaceous Bivalve Larvae

Science, 1978
Exceptionally well preserved larval bivalve shells have been isolated from Late Cretaceous (Maestrichtian) sediments. Specimens were readily identified to familial level on the basis of gross morphology and hinge structures. Reconstruction of fossil larval ontogeny, linked with the distribution of adult stages, will provide an important interpretative ...

From a Global Archived Data Perspective: Larger Bivalves Mean More Microplastics?

open access: yesEnvironmental Science & Technology
Bivalves are a significant source of seafood for people, but so far there have been many studies revealing the presence of microplastics (MPs) in bivalves, yet the role of bivalve biometric parameters in link with MP burden in bivalves remains ...

Protobranch bivalves

2002
The subclass Protobranchia comprises more than 600 species of bivalves that occur throughout the world ocean. Mostly deposit feeders in soft sediments, they are abundant in the deep sea. Apomorphies that unite them as a group include gill structure, hinge conformation, shell microstructure, larval development, foot morphology, respiratory pigments ...

Viruses and bivalve shellfish

International Journal of Food Microbiology, 2000
The epidemiological data clearly demonstrates that filter feeding bivalve shellfish can, and do, act as efficient vehicles for the transmission of enteric viruses transmitted by the faecal-oral route. This identified hazard has been documented as a cause for concern by various international agencies and has a long history.

The catalase of a freshwater bivalve

Canadian Journal of Zoology, 1970
The catalase activity of various tissues of a freshwater mussel was studied. The concentration in the digestive gland is about three times that of the viscera and seven times that of mantle and muscular tissue. Semipurified digestive gland catalase has optimal activity at 10 °C and pH 7.8.

Bivalve Paleoecology

Notes for a Short Course: Studies in Geology, 1985
Bivalves are one of the major macroinvertebrate fossil groups of the Phanerozoic. Bivalves have occupied many aqueous habitats, and in doing this have undergone a steady, relatively unchecked increase in diversity (Figure 1). Thus, bivalves are one of the most useful fossil groups in paleoecology, both for environmental reconstruction as well as for ...
