Two experiments were performed, in which(a) mussel embryos were exposed to the consecutive dilution (0.0, 0.05, 0.5, 5.0, 50.0 and 500.00 μM)of H2O2 for48hand(b)adultclamswere exposedto similar concentrations- of this reactive oxygen species (ROS) for 21 days.

No genotoxicity or neurotoxicity on R. philippinarum were evident after chronic exposure. The battery of responses (organismal and cellular parameters) showed embryotoxicity and sublethal effects on bivalves, which confirmedtheir suitability for assessing the effect of H2O2 mediated OS responses in the marine environment.
