## Abstract Osmotic and ionic (Na, K, and Cl) concentrations in the mantle fluid, pericardial fluid, and blood of __Anodonta woodiana__ were determined. The mantle fluid was extremely hyperosmotic (34 mOsm) to the external medium and the sum of Na and Cl accounted for 62% of the osmotic concentrati
Polychaete worms which inhabit and ingest contaminated sediments may be exposed to a suite of sediment-sorbed xenobiotics, including polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) such as benzo[a]pyrene (BaP). This study compared the accumulation and metabolism of sediment-sorbed BaP among various populati
