The anaerobic fungus Neocallimastix frontalis L2 does not carry out oxidative phosphorylation but instead obtains energy from a fermentative metabolism. It does not have mitochondria, but does contain specialised redox organelles, the hydrogenosomes.

This article describes the immunoperoxidase localization of metallothionein (MT) in the major organs and tissues of the earthworm Lumbricus rubellus sampled from a mine soil heavily polluted with Pb, Zn, and Cd. The polyclonal antiserum used was rais

The study examined the effects of chemical ameliorant additions (1% montmorillonite, 1% hydroxylapatite, or 1% ferrous oxide) on the availability of cadmium (Cd), copper (Cu), lead (Pb) and zinc (Zn) to the earthworm, Lumbricus rubellus , exposed for

Exposure to cadmium poses a considerable risk to human health and environmental safety. Earthworms reside in the most contaminated sites on earth, displaying a phenomenal tolerance to toxic heavy metals. They exhibit a distinct metabolic pathway that

Summary Metals accumulated within the tissues of earthworms are not homogeneously distributed. Rather, they are sequestered predominantly within the posterior alimentary fraction. The clear organotropism of non-essential metals is reinforced by the s

The adhesion of human erythrocytes to glass in the presence of the polycation, polylysine, has been examined. The study provides experimental support for earlier predictions (D.S. Dimitrov, Colloid Polym. Sci., 260 (1982) 1137; D. Gallez, Colloids Su

Understanding the relationships between accumulated metal speciation in cells and tissues of ecologically significant taxa such as earthworms will improve risk assessments. Synchrotron-based μ-focus X-ray spectroscopy was used to detect, localize, a

Earthworms are well-studied organisms in ecotoxicology because of their keystone ecological status and metal-accumulating capacity. However, the direct estimation of the bioreactive fractions of accumulated metal burdens remains technically elusive.

This study sets out to examine the potential of a suite of novel molecular biomarkers as early warning indicators of environmental state and damage. Transcriptional responses of four genes, metallothionein 1 and 2, amine oxidase, and the lysosomal as
