This paper examines how the subcellular partitioning of Cd and Zn in the bivalves Macoma
balthica and Potamocorbula amurensis may affect the trophic transfer of metal to predators. …

The deposit-feeding oligochaete Limnodrilus hollmelsteri possesses metallothionein-like
proteins and metal-rich granules for storing and detoxifying cadmium (Cd). In this study we …

The aquatic oligochaete Limnodrilus hoffmeisteri from a Cd‐contaminated cove on the
Hudson River, Foundry Cove, New York, USA, has evolved Cd resistance. Past studies have …

Many aspects of metal accumulation in aquatic invertebrates (ie toxicity, tolerance and trophic
transfer) can be understood by examining the subcellular partitioning of accumulated metal…

Although the differential responses of stream taxa to metal exposure have been exploited
for bioassessment and monitoring, the mechanisms affecting these responses are not well …

Intracellular partitioning of trace metals is critical to metal detoxification in aquatic organisms.
In the present study, we assessed metal (Cd, Cu, Pb, and Zn) handling capacities of …

… G. Wallace pers, obs.) and for these reasons was chosen as a representative predator for …
are still on the order of 80 pg g dry wt-' and Cd is still being exported to the Hudson River (…

Radiotracer studies were employed to quantitatively compare the biokinetics of uptake from
the dissolved phase (influx rates) and loss (efflux) between 2 bivalves, Potamocorbula …

We tested the hypothesis that exposure-related alterations in the subcellular Cd distribution
in prey relate to changes in Cd absorption by a predator. Oligochaete worms,Limnodrilus …

Behavioral changes in aquatic organisms such as reduced prey capture and decreased
mobility have been linked to exposure to contaminants in the field. The purpose of this study …
