Neuro-, geno- and cytotoxicity responses in mussels Anodonta cygnea after six metals mixture treatment

(Corresponding) Butrimavičienė L.
Topic: 
Heavy metals in the environment
Concerning toxicity, bioaccumulation and persistence in the aquatic environment, six metals such as Zn, Cu, Ni, Cr, Pb and Cd are attributed to priority hazardous substances in many countries throughout the world (Water Framework Directive 2008/105/EC; US EPA 2009). In this study, time-dependent...Read more
