Impact of predation on the bacterial community structure of Mediterranean mussels during depuration [PDF]
The Mediterranean mussel (Mytilus galloprovincialis) is the most valuable shellfish farmed and consumed in the Western Mediterranean. Like any other filter-feeding organism, mussels are exposed to a wide range of microorganisms.

Effect of Acute Cadmium Exposure and Short-Term Depuration on Oxidative Stress and Immune Responses in Meretrix meretrix Gills [PDF]
Cadmium (Cd) is a typical pollutant with strong toxicity even at low concentrations. In the marine environment, Cd is a problem of magnitude and ecological significance due to its high toxicity and accumulation in living organisms.

Pilot-scale depuration demonstrates the suitability of non-pathogenic Vibrio parahaemolyticus as a surrogate for commercial-scale validation studies. [PDF]
Shellfish producers have proposed using depuration systems to reduce Vibrio parahaemolyticus levels by supporting the oysters' natural purging ability. For commercial viability, depuration efficacy must be validated in relevant species and at scale using

Problems of Centralized Depuration Systems
Sewage management produces one of the worse impacts on our environment. The current technology applied is obsolete, which results in a huge public spent on installation and maintenance, with very negative consequences on the health of people and environment.

Transcriptomic and Ultrastructural Analyses Reveal the Mechanisms of Accelerated Depuration Induced by Phyllodium pulchellum Extract in the Freshwater Snail Bellamya purificata [PDF]
The commercial viability of B. purificata relies on efficient depuration. While P. pulchellum extract dramatically accelerates this process, its physiological and molecular mechanisms remain unknown.

Complementary Methods to Improve the Depuration of Bivalves: A Review
Bivalves are filter feeders that can accumulate and concentrate waterborne contaminants present in the water in which they live. Biotoxins, pathogenic bacteria, viruses, and heavy metals present in the aquaculture environment constitute the main hazards ...

A method for improving the quality of grass carp (Ctenopharyngodon idellus): A comprehensive evaluation of clear water depuration based on sensory and nutritional aspects [PDF]
This study investigates the effects of clear water depuration farming on grass carp muscle quality, nutrition, and flavor. Results show that clear water depuration significantly reduces off-flavor compounds while improving muscle texture and sensory ...
