Bioaccumulation of gadolinium in freshwater bivalves

Environmental Science and Pollution Research, 2017
In this study, the presence of anthropogenic gadolinium (Gd) was evaluated in rivers, close to wastewater treatment plant outputs. Then, one site was selected for in situ experiments to assess the bioaccumulation of Gd in the digestive gland and in the gills of two bivalves (Dreissena rostriformis bugensis and Corbicula fluminea).

Some morphological adaptations in freshwater bivalves

Lethaia, 1992
Savazzi, E. & Yao, P. 1992 04 15: Some morphological adaptations in freshwater bivalves. Lethaia, Vol. 25, pp. 195–209. Oslo. ISSN 0024–1164. Several freshwater bivalves possess peculiar shell morphologies. An extension of the postero-dorsal shell margins above the hinge line evolved convergently in several unionids.

Freshwater Bivalves: the Sherlock Holmes of Bioaccumulation

2022
This research explores current literature related to bioaccumulation field studies using freshwater bivalves, both native and invasive species, as indicators for chemical contaminants and highlights research gaps, ending with a call for future research directions. The literature analyzed relies on bioaccumulation, a type of biomonitoring that relies on

Transformation of Freshwater Ecosystems by Bivalves

BioScience, 1999
B ivalves (clams and mussels) are among the most familiar of aquatic organisms. Many have been used by humans for centuries as important sources of food and ornament, and some species are economically important pests, fouling water intakes and other structures.

Cellular volume regulation in freshwater bivalves

Journal of Comparative Physiology B: Biochemical, Systemic, and Environmental Physiology, 1998
The effect of ambient osmolality on the height of lateral ciliated cells from the gills of two freshwater bivalve species (Dreissena polymorpha, Toxolasma texasensis) was directly observed microscopically. The addition of 1 mmol · l−1 KCl to an artificial pondwater (APW) superfusion medium resulted in an increase in cell height.
