	abstract = {In the marine environment, the galvanic anode cathodic protection system (GACP) undergoes oxidation and releases metals in the forms of ions or oxy-hydroxides into the environment. The objective of the present study was to investigate the toxicity of a cocktail of metals released from the dissolution of an aluminium-based galvanic anode (~95\% Al,~5\% Zn) on the abalone Haliotis tuberculata. Juveniles were exposed for 16\&nbsp;weeks (i.e. 12\&nbsp;weeks of exposure and 4\&nbsp;weeks of decontamination phase) and their growth, intake rate, conversion rate and metallic concentrations were monitored. A total of 6 conditions were tested: a control, 4 concentrations based on Al and a trophic control. Results showed that the mortality reached 57\% for individuals exposed to 1125\&nbsp;{\textmu}g L-1 of Al, and the abalone growth signifcantly decreased for an Al concentration greater than 495\&nbsp;{\textmu}g L-1. At the highest exposure concentration, intake rate measurements revealed that the appetite of abalones was afected, supported by the large increase in the conversion rate which was indicative of a poor feed efciency. The monitoring of metallic concentrations showed that H. tuberculata strongly bioconcentrated Al relative to zinc. The diet did not appear to be the primary pathway for metal entry. Concentrations that signifcantly impacted abalone growth and survival during the experiment were higher than those found in natural environment, but the bioconcentration of Al into the tissues of a primary consumer such as abalone may be a potential pathway for Al to enter food webs.},

	abstract = {<p>A 5-month experiment combining a geochemical survey of metals with a bioaccumulation study in batches of Crassostrea gigas was conducted in two shellfish farming areas and a marina in Normandy (France). Various endpoints at different levels of biological organization were studied. ROCCH data showed differences in biota contamination between the two shellfish areas but the present study revealed only slight differences in metallic contamination and biomarkers. By contrast, significantly different values were recorded in the marina in comparison with the two other sites. Indeed, higher levels of Cd, Cu and Zn were measured in the oysters from the marina, and these oysters also showed a poorer physiological condition (e.g., condition index, histopathological alterations and neutral lipid content). For coastal monitoring, the multi-biomarker approach coupled with an assessment of metallic contamination in biota appeared to be suitable for discriminating spatial differences in environmental quality after only a few months of exposure.</p>
