Biomarkers determine suitability of mussel as bioindicator

In order to clerify the suitability of mussel as bioindicator organisms for water quality determination general stres biomarkers (exposure to air and induction of heat shock proteins) and specific biomarkers (DNA damage and cell cycle alterations) have been tested. The results strongly support the suitability of mussels as a good bioindicator when selectedf biomarkers are used in biomonitoring studies
