Figure 1


Fig. 1. Effects of acclimation temperature on Cd accumulation (A) and oxygen consumption (B) in isolated gill and hepatopancreas cells of C. virginica. Oysters were exposed for 20 or 40 days to clean artificial seawater (ASW) or 50 µg l–1 Cd in ASW. Cd levels in tissues and isolated cells of control oysters were below the detection limits of the method used in this study (5 ng Cd g–1 dry tissue mass). N=6–12 in each group. Total oxygen consumption was measured in isolated cells of control oysters at their respective acclimation temperatures. N=6–12 in each group.
