Biomarker responses and accumulation of hazardous substances in mussels (Mytilus trossulus) transplanted along a pollution gradient close to an oil terminal in the …
Baltic Sea blue mussels (Mytilus trossulus) were used as sentinel organisms to detect the
biological effects of chemical contamination in the low salinity environment. Mussels
naturally adapted to a salinity of ca. 6.0 PSU were caged for 30days at four sites along an
assumed pollution gradient (salinity ca. 4.5 PSU) in the vicinity of Finland's largest oil
refinery and harbor Kilpilahti in the Gulf of Finland. Tissue concentrations and accumulation
rates of especially organic contaminants (PAHs, PCBs and organotins) were clearly …
