Weathering impacts the uptake of polyethylene microparticles from toothpaste in Mediterranean mussels (M. galloprovincialis)
2018, Science of the Total EnvironmentCitation Excerpt :Micronuclei formation in haemocytes, gill and digestive gland histology were measured in the mussels from day 0, 5, 9 and 21. Micronuclei formation is widely used in mussels providing a measure of genotoxicity following exposure to environmental contaminants (Majone et al., 1987; Bolognesi et al., 1999; Barsiene et al., 2004; Brooks et al., 2012; Brooks et al., 2015). Haemolymph was collected by carefully lifting the mussel shell with a scalpel and draining any excess water before extraction.
Active biomonitoring of mussels Mytilus galloprovincialis with integrated use of micronucleus assay and physiological indices to assess harbor pollution
2016, Marine Pollution BulletinCitation Excerpt :Also, according to the study of Michel and Vincent-Hubert (2012), the gill cells in suspension, obtained from an enzymatic dissociation of various types of gill cells, are more sensitive to genotoxic substances than hemocytes. Several authors have reported the increase in the frequency of micronuclei in mollusks gill cells exposed to pollutants such as zinc chloride (Majone et al., 1988), benzo(a)pyrene and vincristine (Burgeot et al., 1995), mitomycin and colchicine (Majone et al., 1987, 1990) and mercury chloride (Bolognesi et al., 1999). In the mussel M. galloprovincialis, it was noted that the micronuclei induced by clastogenic and aneugenic agents persist for a very long time after their exposure to chemicals (Majone et al., 1987, 1990).
