Different mercury bioaccumulation kinetics by two macrobenthic species: The bivalve Scrobicularia plana and the polychaete Hediste diversicolor

Mercury is a global priority pollutant and given its huge relevance in terms of environmental damage and a threat to human health, it is important to study the bioaccumulation processes at the level of macrobenthic organisms and evaluate possible consequences for the trophic chain. In this work we e...
