Oxidative DNA damage in digestive gland of mussel Perna perna as indicator of environmental stress [PDF]

Biotemas, 2004
In this work, the levels of DNA damage (8-oxo-7,8-dihidro-2’-desoxiguanosina, 8-oxodGuo) were evaluated in digestive glands of mussels exposed to different metals for 24 hours, as well as in coastal and farmed mussels.

Microplastics as Vehicles of Environmental PAHs to Marine Organisms: Combined Chemical and Physical Hazards to the Mediterranean Mussels, Mytilus galloprovincialis

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2018
The ubiquitous occurrence of microplastics (MPs) in the marine environment is raising concern for interactions with marine organisms. These particles efficiently adsorb persistent organic pollutants from surrounding environment and, due to the small size,
