Comparison of metallothionein concentrations and tissue distribution of trace metals in crabs (Pachygrapsus marmoratus) from a metal-rich estuary, in and out of the reproductive seasonC Mouneyrac

Comp Biochem Physiol C Toxicol Pharmacol 129:193-209. 2001..The natural variability in the concentrations of MT often concealed any relationship with accumulated metal concentrations. Thus MT in crabs cannot be considered as a useful biomarker of metal pollution...

Influence of anthropogenic stress on fitness and behaviour of a key-species of estuarine ecosystems, the ragworm Nereis diversicolorC Mouneyrac

Environ Pollut 158:121-8. 2010..Many classes of potentially toxic chemicals present in these estuaries most likely contribute to these impairments but food availability may act as a confounding factor, interfering with the potential impact of contaminants...
Biological indices, energy reserves, steroid hormones and sexual maturity in the infaunal bivalve Scrobicularia plana from three sites differing by their level of contaminationC Mouneyrac
CEREA, Institut de Biologie et d Ecologie Appliquée, Université Catholique de l Ouest, 3 Place André Leroy, BP 10808, 49008 Angers Cedex 01, France
Gen Comp Endocrinol 157:133-41. 2008..plana is a suitable species for estuarine studies and a better understanding of its reproduction will permit to assess impacts of environmental pollutants...
In situ relationship between energy reserves and steroid hormone levels in Nereis diversicolor (O.F. Müller) from clean and contaminated sitesC Mouneyrac
Institut de Biologie et d Ecologie Appliquée, CEREA, Université Catholique de l Ouest, 44 rue Rabelais, 49008 Angers Cedex 01, France
Ecotoxicol Environ Saf 65:181-7. 2006..The differences in the responses suggest that organisms from the polluted site have been exposed to endocrine disruptors...
Linking steroid hormone levels to sexual maturity index and energy reserves in Nereis diversicolor from clean and polluted estuariesC Durou
CEREA, Institut de Biologie et d Ecologie Appliquée, Université Catholique de l Ouest, 3 Place André Leroy, BP 10808, 49008 Angers Cedex 01, France
Gen Comp Endocrinol 150:106-13. 2007..Sexual precocity and lower glycogen levels in Seine could be explained by a specific strategy above all devoted to reproduction in these worms. Chemical stress could be a possible explanation of these observations...
Intersite variations of a battery of biomarkers at different levels of biological organisation in the estuarine endobenthic worm Nereis diversicolor (Polychaeta, Nereididae)O Fossi Tankoua
Faculte de Pharmacie, Universite de Nantes, MMS, EA2160, 1 rue G Veil, BP 53508, 44035 Nantes cedex 1, France
Aquat Toxicol 114:96-103. 2012....
Assessment of the influence of confounding factors (weight, salinity) on the response of biomarkers in the estuarine polychaete Nereis diversicolorJ Kalman
Universite de Nantes, Faculte de Pharmacie, Nantes, France
Biomarkers 15:461-9. 2010..These findings reinforce the status of N. diversicolor as a robust sentinel species for estuaries which are environments that are particularly productive but also particularly at risk...
Tolerance to metals and assessment of energy reserves in the polychaete Nereis diversicolor in clean and contaminated estuariesC Durou
CEREA, Université Catholique de l Ouest, 3 place A Leroy, BP 808, 49008 Angers, France
Environ Toxicol 20:23-31. 2005..In conclusion, worms from the Seine estuary exhibited tolerance to Zn, and the depletion of energy reserves observed in this population could be interpreted as a cost of tolerance...
Physiological status and intersex in the endobenthic bivalve Scrobicularia plana from thirteen estuaries in northwest FranceO Fossi Tankoua
Universite de Nantes, MMS, EA2160, Faculte de Pharmacie, 1 rue G Veil, BP 53508, 44035 Nantes cedex 1, France
Environ Pollut 167:70-7. 2012..However at this stage, no clear link may be established between intersex and population effects...
Integrated assessment of estuarine sediment quality based on a multi-biomarker approach in the bivalve Scrobicularia planaO Fossi Tankoua
Universite de Nantes, MMS, EA2160, Faculte de Pharmacie, Nantes, France
Ecotoxicol Environ Saf 88:117-25. 2013..However, no links can be established between effects at individual and supra-individual levels in organisms in the Loire estuary, even in the case of a small oil spill which occurred at the beginning of this study...
Marine water quality assessment using transplanted oyster larvaeF Quiniou
Département Biogéochimie et Ecotoxicologie IFREMER Centre de Brest, BP 70, 29280 Plouzane, France
Environ Int 33:27-33. 2007..These responses, obtained within 48 h, may be related to the chemical contamination of the environment and may be used for seawater quality assessment in future studies...
Tolerance and biomarkers as useful tools for assessing environmental quality in the Oued Souss estuary (Bay of Agadir, Morocco)A Ait Alla
Laboratoire Eau et Environnement, , , B.P. 28/S, Agadir 80000, Morocco
Comp Biochem Physiol C Toxicol Pharmacol 143:23-9. 2006..The level of contamination was probably maintained since biomarker values were generally higher in worms from Oued Souss when compared to Oualidia...
