Cadmium-binding proteins in Mytilus edulis : Relation to mode of administration and significance in tissue retention of cadmium

Tissue cadmium levels and the amount of metal associated with the various protein fractions thereof have been determined in specimens of Mytilus edulis exposed to cadmium in the water and by direct injection. In addition to metallothionein, heavy-molecular weight proteins are involved in cadmium ret...
