چکیده

Mussels Mytilus galloprovincialis collected and bought from different locations (Slovenian coastline, Italy and NE Pacific) were analysed by techniques of hydride generation atomic fluorescence spectrometry (HG-AFS) and liquid chromatography coupled to inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (HPLC-ICP-MS) in order to assess selenium (Se), its distribution and Se species in raw and cooked soft tissue. Total Se concentration in raw mussels ranged between 3.15 to 8.27 μg/g, while in cooked ones, Se concentration were half lower. Selenium species identified were selenomethione (SeMet) and selenocystine (SeCys2).

MSP22.8 is a protease inhibitor‐like protein involved in shell mineralization in the edible mussel Mytilus galloprovincialis

The mussel shell protein 22.8 (MSP22.8) is recognized by a monoclonal antibody (M22.8) directed against larvae of the mussel Mytilus galloprovincialis. After being secreted by cells of the mantle-edge epithelium into the extrapallial (EP) space (the gap between the mantle and the shell), the protein is detected in the extrapallial fluid (EPF) and EP hemocytes and finally becomes part of the she...

Mini-review: Distribution of the Mediterranean Mussel Mytilus Galloprovincialis (bivalvia: Mytilidae) and Hybrids in the Northeast Pacific

The non-native Mediterranean mussel Mytilus galloprovincialis is broadly established in the northeast Pacific. Until recently, the coast north of Humboldt Bay, California, USA, was not considered a major zone of sympatry and hybridization with the native sibling species M. trossulus. However, M. galloprovincialis has been introduced in Washington, USA, and British Columbia, Canada, for aquacult...

Trace metals assessment in water, sediment, mussel and seagrass species--validation of the use of Posidonia oceanica as a metal biomonitor.

The accumulation of trace metals (Cd, Co, Cr, Hg, Ni and Pb) was measured in water, sediment, the mussel Mytilus galloprovincialis and the seagrass Posidonia oceanica. Samples were collected in three locations of the north-western Mediterranean (Canari, Livorno and Porto-Torres) which present different levels and sources of human impact. Analyses in the different compartments (water, sediment, ...
