Bioaccumulation of certain heavy metals by unionidae molluscs in Criş/Körös rivers

The authors examined the bioaccumulation of heavy metals (Cu,Zn and Mn) of the unionid shells in Cri§/K6r6s rivers. Altough the unionids are present in abundant populations in these rivers, it was established that their survival is endangered by the high content of xenobiotics.
