Assessment of Knowledge on Metal Trace Element Concentrations and Metallothionein Biomarkers in Cetaceans

Cetaceans are recognized as bioindicators of pollution in oceans. These marine mammals are final trophic chain consumers and easily accumulate pollutants. For example, metals are abundant in oceans and commonly found in the cetacean tissues. Metallothioneins (MTs) are small non-enzyme proteins invol...
