- Abstract
- A number of biochemical markers and a physiological index were measured in mussels,
Mytilus galloprovincialis, transplanted or native to five different contaminated sites in the
lagoon of Venice.Mussels from Pellestrina, a reference site in the adjacent Adriatic Sea, were
transplanted for 6 weeks to areas of the lagoon where indigenous mussels were also collected.
As biochemical indices, superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase, aldehyde dehydrogenase
(ADH) and NADPH cytochrome c reductase (NADPHcred) were measured in mussel digestive
gland; survival in air as a physiological index was also determined.Biomarker responses
varied among sites and between indigenous and transplanted animals.Significant induction of
catalase and SOD was shown in animals transplanted to the urban sites of Salute and
Chioggia, respectively.In indigenous mussels, induction of SOD and NADPHcred was seen
in animals from the polluted site of Treporti and the heavily contaminated industrial area of
Marghera.The overall biochemical data indicate significantly higher activity for ADH in
transplanted animals in comparison with indigenous ones which, in contrast, present an
increase in SOD.As regard survival in air, control mussels did not seem to be healthier in
comparison either with transplanted or indigenous ones, suggesting that pollution has no
effect on this parameter. (literal)
