Use of the Land Snail Helix aspersa as Sentinel Organism for Monitoring Ecotoxicologic Effects of Urban Pollution: An Integrated Approach

TL;DR: The overall results of this exploratory study suggest the utility of H. aspersa as a sentinel organism for biomonitoring the biologic impact of atmospheric pollution in urban areas and an ecotoxicologic approach to evaluate both bioaccumulation and toxicologic effects caused by airborne pollutants.
Journal ArticleDOI

An ecotoxicological protocol with caged mussels, Mytilus galloprovincialis, for monitoring the impact of an offshore platform in the Adriatic Sea.

TL;DR: Variations of antioxidants and lysosomal stability were confirmed as sensitive early warning signals for biological disturbance of both natural and anthropogenic origin in mussels in the central Adriatic Sea.
Journal ArticleDOI

Seasonal, spatial and inter-annual variations of trace metals in mussels from the Adriatic sea: a regional gradient for arsenic and implications for monitoring the impact of off-shore activities.

TL;DR: A significant inter-annual variability was observed for both the seasonal cycle and the range of values measured for all the elements, with particularly marked differences for arsenic, ranging from less than 10 to more than 40 microg/g in summer periods of different years.
Journal ArticleDOI

A multidisciplinary weight of evidence approach for classifying polluted sediments: Integrating sediment chemistry, bioavailability, biomarkers responses and bioassays.

TL;DR: Differences when comparing evaluations obtained from different LOEs are revealed, confirming the importance of considering synergistic effects between chemicals in complex mixtures, and the proposed WOE model allowed a quantitative characterization of sediment hazard and a better discrimination of on the basis of various types of chemical and biological data.
Journal ArticleDOI

Pro-oxidant effects of extremely low frequency electromagnetic fields in the land snail Helix aspersa.

TL;DR: The overall results indicated an oxidative challenge caused by ELF magnetic fields with particularly prompt and sensitive responses for catalase, glutathione reductase, and the overall capability to neutralize peroxyl radicals.
