Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
In the present study, rock oysters (Saccostrea cucullata) were first exposed to cadmium and zinc for two weeks to modify their subcellular metal partitionings. The relationship between subcellular metal (Cd and Zn) partitioning in the oysters and metal bioaccumulation and fractionation in predatory gastropods (Thais clavigera) was then examined by feeding to the predator oysters that were preexposed to metal for two to four weeks. We also investigated the relationship between the PAM in the oysters and the biochemical biomarkers in the gastropods. Thais clavigera accumulated Cd effectively from their prey, but no correlation was found between the Cd body concentrations in T. clavigera and the internal metal partitioning in the prey. A significant positive correlation was found between the Cd in the trophically available metal (TAM) fraction of oysters and the Cd in the metal-sensitive fraction of T. clavigera and between the Cd in the TAM fraction of oysters and the metallothionein induction in whelks. Zinc was highly regulated by both S. cucullata and T. clavigera, and their Zn body concentrations remained constant throughout the exposure period. No relationship between Zn bioaccumulation and any of the subcellular fractions was found. The present study may lead to a better understanding of the dietary metal exposure mechanism. © 2008 SETAC.
