abstract:

The monthly evaluation of the cytotoxicity of hemolymph from the mussel Mytilus galloprovincialis revealed some variations in the percentage of cytotoxic animals during the year. Cytotoxicity is confirmed to be a dynamic parameter that can be used as an indicator of immune efficiency and, therefore, of the state of health of the animals.
