Metal accumulation kinetics by the estuarine macroalga, Fucusceranoides
The kinetics of Cu, Cd and Pb accumulation by the macroalga, Fucus ceranoides, was studied under simulated estuarine conditions. Accumulation of Cu and Pb proceeded via a pseudo-first-order reaction that was reversible, suggesting desorption or efflux of accumulated metal, with forward rate constants on the order of 0.1 h 1. For both metals, reaction reversibility increased and the equilibrium ...

متن کاملAccumulation of silver by Fucus spp. (Phaeophyceae) and its toxicity to Fucus ceranoides under different salinity regimes.
Metals constitute an important group of abiotic stressors that elicit stress responses in marine algae that include the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Silver (Ag) is a highly toxic metal to organisms but despite this there are relatively few studies on how it affects marine macroalgae (seaweeds). In a landmark study published in 1977 the first information was provided on the accum...
متن کاملArsenic biotransformation by the brown macroalga, Fucus serratus.
The brown alga Fucus serratus was maintained in aquaria with added arsenate (0, 20, 50, and 100 microg As/L, four individuals per treatment) for up to 19 weeks. Biotransformation of arsenic by Fucus was monitored by high-performance liquid chromatography/inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry and liquid chromatography/electrospray mass spectrometry analysis of aqueous extracts of algal fr...
متن کاملMetal Accumulation and Metallothionein Response in Fucus Spiralis
Seaweeds are established sentinels for metal contamination and are utilised for biomonitoring. Metallothionein (MT) is a protein that is induced by metal exposure, and has been widely used as a biomarker for metal pollution. MT has not been reported in spiral wrack (Fucus spiralis), but has been identified in bladder wrack (Fucus vesiculosus), where it has been suggested to be a protective mech...
