Application | Comment | Organism |
---|---|---|
additional information | potential of acid DNase response in mussels to serve as a biomarker of contaminant exposure, whereby the digestive gland is a suitable tissue for discrimination of polluted areas from maricultured area. Since acid DNase activity in mussel Mytilus galloprovincilais is tissue-specific and pollutant-specific the digestive gland/hemocyte (Hep/Hem) ratio reveals a pollutant effect that can not be detected by acid DNase measurement in single tissue only | Mytilus galloprovincialis |
