Journal ArticleDOI
Developmental and cytogenetic abnormalities induced in the purple sea urchin by environmental levels of benzo(a)pyrene.
TL;DR: Results demonstrate that mitotic inhibition and aberrations are more sensitive indicators of BaP-induced damage than are developmental effects and suggest that cytogenetic analysis be included in the standard 48-hr sea urchin bioassay procedure when testing contaminants suspected of being mutagens.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of hexavalent and trivalent chromium on the reproduction of Neanthes arenaceodentata (polychaeta)
TL;DR: Compared the very different responses of the polychaete Neanthes arenaceodentata to chronic exposure of hexavalent (Cr VI) and trivalent (cr III) chromium, polychaetes that lived in Cr III during the test showed no adverse effects.
Journal ArticleDOI
Bioaccumulation of chromium and its effects on reproduction in Neanthes arenaceodentata (polychaeta)
Philip S. Oshida,Lucinda S. Word +1 more
TL;DR: The levels of hexavalent chromium (Cr VI) that caused diminished reproductive ability in the polychaete Neanthes arenaceodentata were determined and it was found that reductions in numbers of offsprings occurred at 16 to 38 μl/litre.
Book ChapterDOI
Effects of municipal wastewater on fertilization, survival, and development of the sea urchin, strongylocentrotus purpuratus
Journal ArticleDOI
A simple new bioassay based on echinochrome synthesis by larval sea urchins
TL;DR: A simple, rapid and quantitative embryo-larval bioassay that uses changes in echinochrome pigment synthesis as an indicator of seawater toxicity has been developed to allow increased use of sensitive sea urchin bioassays where time, resources and technical expertise may be limited.
