Genetic damage in the bivalve mollusk Corbicula fluminea induced by the water-soluble fraction of gasoline.
Although gasoline is an important contaminant of aquatic ecosystems, information concerning the potential effects of this petroleum derivative on the DNA of aquatic biota is lacking. The present study aimed to evaluate the genotoxic and mutagenic effects of acute exposures (6, 24, and 96h) to gasoline water-soluble fraction (GWSF), diluted to 5%, on the Asian clam Corbicula fluminea. The comet ...
متن کاملStructure of new carotenoids from corbicula clam Corbicula japonica.
Six new carotenoids, named corbiculaxanthin (1), corbiculaxanthin 3'-acetate (2), 6-epiheteroxanthin (3), 7',8'-didehydrodeepoxyneoxanthin (4), cyclopyrrhoxanthin (5), and hydratoperidinin (6), were isolated from the corbicula clam (Shijimi in Japanese), Corbicula japonica. Their structures were determined by chemical and spectral data.
متن کاملEffect of selenium exposure on the freshwater bivalve Corbicula fluminea
Selenium is essential for most of living organisms. In normoxic to moderately hypoxic freshwaters, Se exists predominantly in the (+VI) and (+IV) oxidation states as selenate and selenite respectively, whereas in the biota it is incorporated as Se (-II) or Se (0). At low concentrations, it acts against oxidative damages, but it may be toxic at higher levels. In filter feeders, such as the fresh...
متن کاملThe Bivalve Corbicula fluminalis (Müller, 1774): an Indicator for Heavy Metals Accumulation in the Habitat of Zayandeh-Roud River
The accumulation of the heavy metals Cd, Zn, Cu, and Pb were surveyed in the samples of mantle tissues, crusts and so the habitat sediments of C. fluminalis to reveal the probable biomonitoring rule of the bivalve in the ecosystem. The warm-cold seasonally samplings were carried out over the stations of Zayandeh-Roud River in Safi'eh, Isfahan province, during 2014. The warm and cold seasonal a...
