Effect of chronic exposure to zinc in young spats of the Pacific oyster (Crassostrea gigas)
The marine coastal environment is exposed to a mixture of environmental pollutants of anthropogenic origin, resulting in chronic low concentrations of contaminants. As a consequence, most coastal marine species are exposed to low doses of such pollutants during their entire life. Many marine species live for years in their natural environment, whereas they do not under laboratory exposure ...

Rainfall and river flows are predictors for β-glucuronidase positive
Escherichia coli accumulation in mussels and Pacific oysters from the Dart Estuary (England)Rainfall and river flows are environmental variables influencing the microbial status of bivalve mollusc harvesting areas. This study investigated spatial and temporal relationships between rainfall, river flows and concentrations of Escherichia coli in mussels (Mytilus spp.) and Pacific oysters (C. gigas) from three harvesting areas in the Dart Estuary over the period 1996–2009. Mussels growing ...
