Response of antioxidant systems to copper in the gills of the clam Ruditapes decussatus
Copper (Cu) is an essential element for biological systems, however, when present in excess, is toxic. Metallothioneins can play an important role in Cu homeostasis and detoxification. Moreover, Cu can catalyse the production of toxic hydroxyl radicals that cause lipid peroxidation but defence systems in the cells can limit the oxidative damage.

Effect of cadmium in the clam Ruditapes decussatus assessed by proteomic analysis
Cadmium, an environmental stressor due to its toxicity, persistence and accumulation in biota, is widespread in the aquatic environment. Cadmium accumulation kinetics have revealed that Ruditapes decussatus has a high affinity to this metal. Proteomics is an effective tool to evaluate the toxic effects of contaminants.

This study used environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding of superficial water samples to assess benthic invertebrate biodiversity in the Venice Lagoon. Sampling from surface water revealed 80 taxonomic units, mostly benthic species, including several invasive ones, with significant spatial and seasonal variations in community composition.

Effect of stocking density on larval performance and post-larvae settlement of clam Ruditapes decussatus (Linnaeus, 1758) in bivalve hatchery production [PDF]
Larval rearing is a critical phase in bivalve hatchery production and plays a crucial role in the success of spat production. Therefore, understanding the effect of density on larval performance and post-larvae settlement is crucial for optimizing and ...

Update of the risk assessment of brominated phenols and their derivatives in food
Abstract The European Commission asked EFSA to update its 2012 risk assessment on brominated phenols and their derivatives in food, focusing on five bromophenols and one derivative: 2,4,6‐tribromophenol (2,4,6‐TBP), 2,4‐dibromophenol (2,4‐DBP), 4‐bromophenol (4‐BP), 2,6‐dibromophenol (2,6‐DBP), tetrabrominated bisphenol S (TBBPS), tetrabromobisphenol S
