Exposure to polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) affects the histology and antioxidant capability of the clam Cyclina sinensis

Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) are environmentally persistent and highly toxic organochlorine compounds that may cause toxic effects on aquatic animals. In this study we assess the toxic effect of PCBs on a bivalve used in aquaculture, the clam Cyclina sinensis. To this end, individuals of C. sine...
