Supporting variables for biological effects measurements in fish and blue mussel.
(International Council for the Exploration of the Sea (ICES), Copenhagen, Denmark, 2017)
Biological effects measurements in fish and blue mussel are fundamental in marine environmental monitoring. Nevertheless, currently used biomarkers may be confounded by basic physiological phenomena, such as growth, ...
Biological effects of contaminants: Quantification of metallothionein (MT) in fish liver tissue.
(International Council for the Exploration of the Sea (ICES), Copenhagen, Denmark, 1999)
This document describes methods to analyse the protein metallothionein in fish tissues. Metallothionein is induced by and binds essential (Cu, Zn) and non-essential (Cd, Hg) metals and is used in monitoring programmes as ...
Biological effects of contaminants: Radioimmunoassay (RIA) and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) techniques for the measurement of marine fish vitellogenins.
(International Council for the Exploration of the Sea (ICES), Copenhagen, Denmark, 2002)
This document describes immunochemical methods to quantify the egg-yolk precursor protein vitellogenin in fish plasma. Vitellogenin is normally produced by the liver of mature female fish in response to 17β-oestradiol (E2) ...
