| biomarkers of damage and protection in mytilus galloprovincialis cross transplanted in ria formosa lagoon (portugal). | the study was carried out to check the water contamination in two sites of ria formosa lagoon by assessing the damage responses versus protection in the gills and digestive gland (dg) of mussels--mytilus galloprovincialis lmk. damage was assessed as dna integrity and lipid peroxidation (lpo) while protection was evaluated by measuring catalase (cat), glutathione peroxidase (gpx), glutathione reductase (gr), glutathione s-transferase (gst), total glutathione (gsht) and metallothioneins (mt). muss ... | 2009 | 19609672 |
