Heavy Metal Accumulation in Molluscs as Bioindicator of Contamination in Mangrove Sediments in Lake Uacon, Candelaria, Zambales
Heavy metals (HMs) are bioaccumulated in molluscs. These HMs are regulated by metallothionein (MT) in mollusc tissues. However, the MT contents may vary with HM, mollusc species and assemblage. In this study, the HM and MT contents were assessed in molluscs found in mangroves contaminated by mining...
