The metabolic activity of cells of Fucus vesiculosus Linnaeus, 1753 (Phaeophyta: Fucales) from the Barents Sea under conditions of oil pollution

The metabolic activity of cells of Fucus vesiculosus Linnaeus, 1753 (Phaeophyta: Fucales) from... The metabolic activity of cells of brown seaweed was studied. The metabolic activity of cells of F. vesiculosus increased in an oil-polluted environment. The period of formation of the response to the addition of a toxicant depends on conditions in the algal habitat. Metabolic activity increased during several minutes in samples that were taken from a clean area and on the third day of exposure in samples from an oilpolluted area. The level of metabolic activity of cells of F. vesiculosus can be used as an indicator of the presence of stress factors in the algal habitat. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png Russian Journal of Marine Biology Springer Journals

Abstract

The metabolic activity of cells of brown seaweed was studied. The metabolic activity of cells of F. vesiculosus increased in an oil-polluted environment. The period of formation of the response to the addition of a toxicant depends on conditions in the algal habitat. Metabolic activity increased during several minutes in samples that were taken from a clean area and on the third day of exposure in samples from an oilpolluted area. The level of metabolic activity of cells of F. vesiculosus can be used as an indicator of the presence of stress factors in the algal habitat.
