Gill and digestive caecum of telescopium telescopium as biomonitors of Pb bioavailability and contamination by Pb in the tropical intertidal area. by Yap, Chee Kong, Arifin, Noorhaidah

“…By comparing the Pb concentrations in the similar tissues, spatial variation of Pb was found in the different sampling sites although there is no consistent pattern of Pb contamination in these sampling sites. Second, based on the correlation coefficients and multiple linear stepwise regression analysis between Pb concentrations in the different soft tissues and Pb concentrations in geochemical factions in the surface sediments, it is found that gill and digestive caecum can truly reflect Pb contamination and Pb bioavailabilities in the tropical intertidal mudflats. …”
