Search for triorganotins along the Mar del Plata (Argentina) marine coast: Finding of tributyltin in egg capsules of a snail Adelomelon brasiliana (Lamarck, 1822) population showing imposex effects
Cases of imposex were clearly identified in Adelomelon brasiliana living in the Mar del Plata (Argentina) coastal area; percentages as high as 50.0% were determined among the samples studied. These were the first reported cases of ocurrence of imposex in this type of gastropod. Since this is one of...
