After discussing the usefulness of mussels (e.g. Mytilus edulis) for investigating contamination in the marine environment, four cases are presented: (1) A survey of Cu bioavailability in and around the Eastern Scheldt during one winter (1974-1975); (2) A surveillance with a six years interval (1974; 1980) of the bioavailability of Zn along the Dutch North Sea coast. (3) A monitoring programme over the period 1972-1980 showing the decrease in bioavailable Hg in the water column of the Ems-Dollard estuary after decreased emissions at Delfzijl. (4) Retrospective monitoring of two PCB's, as a background for the effectiveness of legal restrictions to PCB use. These four cases are considered a first step in understanding the effects of pollutants in marine ecosystems. In depth physiological, histological and biochemical studies could lay the basis for improved routine biological effect monitoring.
在讨论了贻贝（例如贻贝）在调查海洋环境污染方面的有用性之后，提出了四个案例：（1）1974-1975 年冬季东斯海尔德河及其周边地区铜生物利用度的调查；（2）1974 年至 1980 年期间沿荷兰北海沿岸锌生物利用度的六年监测；（3）1972-1980 年期间的监测计划显示，在 Delfzijl 减少排放后，埃姆斯-多拉德河口水柱中生物可利用的汞减少；（4）作为对 PCB 使用的法律限制有效性的背景，对两种 PCB 的回顾性监测。这四个案例被认为是了解污染物对海洋生态系统影响的第一步。深入的生理、组织学和生物化学研究可以为改进常规生物效应监测奠定基础。
