摘要

Method for the detoxification and purification of organic contaminants in bivalve molluscs and their application. The present invention provides the use of N-acetylcysteine (nac), or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, to facilitate the detoxification and purification of organic contaminants in bivalve molluscs. Nac is able to stimulate the intracellular synthesis of glutathione and induce the activities glutathione s-transferase and glutathione reductase in mussels, so it accelerates up to four times the speed of elimination of pesticides from bivalve tissues as well as increasing tolerance to oxidative stress.
