Mechanisms of Toxicity of Ag Nanoparticles in Comparison to Bulk and Ionic Ag on Mussel Hemocytes and Gill Cells
(Public Library Science, 2015-06-10)
Silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs) are increasingly used in many products and are expected to end up in the aquatic environment. Mussels have been proposed as marine model species to evaluate NP toxicity in vitro. The objective ...
DNA Damage and Transcriptional Changes in the Gills of Mytilus galloprovincialis Exposed to Nanomolar Doses of Combined Metal Salts (Cd, Cu, Hg)
(PloS ONE, 2013)
[ENG]Aiming at an integrated and mechanistic view of the early biological effects of selected metals in the marine sentinel
organism Mytilus galloprovincialis, we exposed mussels for 48 hours to 50, 100 and 200 nM solutions ...
