Bioaccumulation of pollutants in the green-lipped mussel Perna viridis: Assessing pollution abatement in Victoria Harbour and its adjacent aquaculture area, Hong Kong, and the minimal human health risks from mussel consumption.

Marine Pollution Bulletin
The green-lipped mussel Perna viridis was utilised for pollution biomonitoring in Victoria Harbour and its adjacent aquaculture area in Hong Kong. P. viridis was collected from a reference site and redeployed at five study sites for five weeks during the

Seasonal Variations of Lipid Content and Composition in Perna viridis

Lipids, 2007
AbstractThe total lipid content, composition of main lipid classes, composition of sterols and composition of fatty acids in the main glycerolipids of Perna viridis were analyzed through four seasons using TLC‐FID and GLC. Mussel samples were collected during different seasons between 2003 and 2004 from Shengsi Island, Zhejiang Province, China and ...

Biokinetics and biotransformation of DDTs in the marine green mussels Perna viridis

Aquatic Toxicology, 2009
The biokinetics of p,p'-dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane (DDT) and its metabolites, p,p'-dichlorodiphenydichloroethylene (DDE) and p,p'-dichlorodiphenyldichloroethane (DDD), in the green-lipped mussel Perna viridis were characterized in this study. We exposed the mussels to DDT in aqueous or dietary sources and then compared and evaluated the absorption,

Oxidation and cross-link of tyrosine-rich proteins are involved in the periostracum formation of the green mussel Perna viridis (Linnaeus).

Journal of Proteomics
Ocean acidification causes severe shell dissolution and threats the survival of marine molluscs. The periostracum in molluscs consists of macromolecules such as proteins and polysaccharides, and protects the inner shell layers from dissolution and ...

In vivo bioaccumulation and responses of hemocytes of mussels Perna viridis to microplastics and nanoplastics exposure.

Journal of Hazardous Materials
Growing micro- and nano-plastic (MNPs) pollution in the environment poses a threat to marine animals. Due to their excellent filtration capacity, bivalves can easily ingest MNPs, which could be translocated to open circulation system with potential risks.

Genotoxicity of perfluorinated chemicals (PFCs) to the green mussel (Perna viridis)

Science of The Total Environment, 2014
Concerns regarding perfluorinated chemicals (PFCs) have grown significantly in recent years. However, regulations and guidelines regarding the emission and treatment of PFCs are still missing in most parts of the world, mostly due to the lack of PFC toxicity data.

The Green MUSSEL (Perna Viridis) in the Philippines*

2018
P. viridis, formerly known as Mytilus smaragdinus Chemnitz, 1785, and M. viridis (L.), 1758, is a Southeast Asian species. Its present known range of distribution is the northeastern Indian Ocean, i.e., from the coasts of India, peninsular Malaysia and Singapore, to the South Chine Sea in Thailand and the Philippines. In the Philippines, the species is

Tropical mussels Perna perna and P. viridis (Bivalvia: Mytilidae): Bottom or suspended culture?

Aquaculture, 2019
Abstract Growth and survival of size-classes of the green Perna viridis and the brown P. perna mussels were compared in suspended and bottom culture systems in the Southern Caribbean Sea. The size-classes (juveniles, medium-size and adults) were defined in relation to somatic and reproductive characteristics of both species. Survival of P. viridis in
