A Review of the Effects of Limnoperna fortunei (Dunker, 1857): Invasion on Hydraulic Structures and Ecosystems and Their Control

Sustainability
We review the research on L. fortunei over the past 22 years, systematically elucidating its impacts on ecological environments and water engineering structures. We explored the effects of external factors on the invasion and spread of L.

Distribution, tolerance, growth, behaviour and control methods of Limnoperna fortunei (Dunker, 1857) (Bivalvia: Mytilidae): A review

Aquatic conservation
Limnoperna fortunei (L. fortunei) (Dunker, 1857), the golden mussel, is an invasive species possessing exceptional environmental adaptability and a destructive impact on water systems and artificial structures.

Population Dynamics and Growth of Limnoperna fortunei

2015
During its first year of life, Limnoperna fortunei grows from ~ 10 to > 30 mm in shell length, primarily depending on water temperature. Two-year-old individuals attain 20–30 mm, and 30 mm is usually the largest size, although specimens up to > 50 mm in size have been reported. The life span is 2–3 years. Water temperature, including the season of each

The harm and control technology of Limnoperna fortunei

2011 International Conference on Remote Sensing, Environment and Transportation Engineering, 2011
The harm to raw water supply and treatment of Limnoperna fortunei is a new problem. It not only has influence on the ecosystem of water source and the water quality and resistance in the transmittion process, but also does harm to the facilities of water treatment.

First record of microplastics in the mussel Limnoperna fortunei

Regional Studies in Marine Science, 2020
Abstract The goal of this study was to analyse the presence, abundance, types, size and colours of microplastics (MPs) in the soft tissue of the golden mussel Limnoperna fortunei in the freshwater-mixohaline tidal zone of Rio de la Plata estuary. 240 mussels were analysed and the MPs were observed in the 96% of samples, being more abundant in the ...

Transient Pressure Response in Pipes Colonized by Golden Mussels (Limnoperna fortunei): An Experimental Study

Applied Sciences
Rapid pressure fluctuations—known as hydraulic transients—occur during valve operations or load changes in turbines and pumps. The presence of biofouling, particularly caused by the golden mussel (Limnoperna fortunei), can intensify these effects and ...

Larval Development of Limnoperna Fortunei

2015
Mature sperm cells of Limnoperna fortunei measure about 4 µm, and ova are typically spherical, 80–100 µm in diameter. Forty minutes after spawning, the first polar lobe appears, and the first division occurs 14 min later. Slightly over an hour after spawning, the second polar lobe appears and the second division yields a 4-cell stage.

Control of Limnoperna fortunei Fouling by Thermal Treatments

2015
Thermal treatments for the control of mussel fouling can be applied in two different ways: (1) Water temperature can be gradually increased at a specific rate until target organisms die off (acute upper lethal temperature), or (2) animals can be exposed to a constant (high) temperature for periods long enough to achieve 100 % mortality (chronic upper ...

Impact of morphologically tuned silica nanoparticles on the invasive freshwater bivalve Limnoperna fortunei.

Environmental Toxicology and Pharmacology
Silica nanoparticles (SiNP) have a high global production volume, but their toxicity is far from being completely understood. In this study, we synthesized SiNP with distinct morphological features: dense SiNP (dSiNP), conventional mesoporous SiNP (MSN),

Mitigating biofouling in hydraulic infrastructure: a review of Limnoperna fortunei (Dunker, 1857) control technologies

Biofouling (Print)
Limnoperna fortunei (Dunker, 1857 in GBIF Secretariat (2023)), an invasive species known for its high filtration rate, dense populations, and rapid dispersion, poses a significant threat to freshwater ecosystems in various regions worldwide. In hydraulic
