In Crustacea

In an extension of the FIAM model, the biotic ligand model of the acute toxicity of metals assumes that a given toxic effect occurs when the concentration of metal bound to biotic ligands exceeds a certain threshold concentration [203-205]. This model has been successfully applied to rationalise toxicity data from fish and Daphnia. Although the identity and abundance of biotic ligands is not known, modelling has revealed that the critical biotic ligand concentrations are much lower in Crustacea than in fish [203,204],...

Invertebrates (crustacea and molluscs) readily accumulate hydrocarbons when exposed for more than a few hours through surrounding water. In crustacea, thoracic and abdominal sections (21,22), gills (22,23), stomach (22, 23), hepatopancreas (23), muscle (23), gonad (23), and blood (23j are sites of hydrocarbon accumulation. In molluscs, gills (24,25), adductor muscle (24, 25), viscera (25), mantle (24,25), and foot (25) are tissues in which hydrocarbons were identified in challenged organisms. [Pg.63]

This paper summarizes current knowledge of the chemistry of neurohormones involved in the regulation of color changes in insects, as well as the nature of other insect neuropeptides with chromatophorotropic actions in Crustacea--with emphasis on pigment-dispersing peptides. [Pg.111]

Environ. Res., submitted). Some monooxygenase activity has been found in microsomes prepared from the stomach and antennal gland of crab and crayfish species (18,19,20). Of the other phase I enzymes, high epoxide hydrolase has been found in hepatopancreas (27), but little information is available on ester hydrolase activity in Crustacea. [Pg.100]
