Our model is the zebra mussel. The examined pollutants are the heavy metals and different classes of organic pollutants from which is known they can act as endocrine disruptors in other organisms. On the one hand we will investigate whether in vitro exposure of sperm to pollutants effects their sperm motility and fertilization capacity. On the other hand changes in the motility and fertilization capacity of the spermatozoa of in vivo exposed zebra mussels will be examined, followed by a histological survey of the gonads.","AbstractOtherLang":"In dit onderzoek zal worden nagegaan in welke mate polluenten de spermakwaliteit en bevruchtingscapaciteit van tweekleppigen beïnvloeden. Onze modelsoort is de driehoeksmossel. De onderzochte polluenten zijn de zware metalen en verschillende klassen organische polluenten waarbij reeds een endocrien verstorende werking is vastgesteld in andere organismen. In het in vitro onderzoek wordt enerzijds onderzocht of na in vitro blootstelling van vrijgezet sperma aan plluenten, veranderingen optreden in de motiliteit en bewegingskenmerken van spermatozoa. Anderzijds wordt de bevruchtingscapaciteit van het in vitro blootgesteld sperma nagegaan. Ook na in vivo blootstelling van  driehoeksmosselen aan relatief lage concentraties polluenten worden veranderingen in de motiliteit en de  bevruchtingscapaciteit van de spermatozoa nagegaan, gevolgd door een histologisch onderzoek van de gonaden.","DateLastModified":{"date":"2024-05-06 10:25:46.257000","timezone_type":1,"timezone":"+00:00"},"ParentProID":null,"BeginYear":1998,"EndYear":2000,"BMonth":10,"EMonth":9,"BeginMonth":"October","EndMonth":"September","OrigTitleLangCode":"nl","OrigTitleLangID":41,"OrigTitleLangNL":"Nederlands","OrigTitleLang":"Dutch","OtherAbstractLangCode":"nl","OtherAbstractLangID":41,"OtherAbstractLang":"Dutch","OtherAbstractLangNL":"Nederlands","Progress":"Completed","ProgressNL":"Afgelopen","PublicFlag":1,"CheckedFlag":0,"ND":"2003-11-26","UD":"2009-01-08","DMPFlag":0,"Budget":null,"BudgetCurrency":null},"parent":null,"persons":null,"projects":null,"events":null,"datasets":null,"institutes":[{"instituterec":{"Acronym":null,"ProPartID":680,"PublicFlag":1,"OrigNameLangCode":"en","OrigNameLangID":15,"FullOrigName":"Katholieke Universiteit Leuven; Department of Biology; Systematics and Ecology of Animals Section; Laboratory of Aquatic Ecology and Evolutionary Biology","Line1":"Charles Deberiotstraat 32 bus 2439","Line2":"3000 Leuven","Line3":null,"Line4":null,"InsID":8836,"FullStandardName":"Katholieke Universiteit Leuven; Departement Biologie; Afdeling Dierenecologie en -systematiek; Aquatische Ecologie en Evolutiebiologie","Role":null,"RoleID":null,"EncAddress":"Charles Deberiotstraat 32 bus 2439, 3000 Leuven, Belgium"},"parent":null,"institutes":null,"references":null,"conferences":null,"datasets":null,"persons":[{"Surname":"Ollevier","Firstname":"Frans","Initials":"F.","LeaderFlag":0,"PersID":34,"Role":"Promotor","RoleID":8,"PastInstitute":0,"BeginDay":null,"BeginMonth":null,"BeginYear":null,"EndDay":null,"EndMonth":null,"EndYear":null}],"pastpers":null,"subpers":null,"projects":null,"urls":null,"pictures":null,"published":null,"affrefs":null,"collections":null,"thesterms":null,"taxterms":null,"geoterms":null,"thestermsFRIS":null,"nXtins":null,"previns":null,"spcols":null,"resmessage":"no id specified","complete":0,"participantrec":null,"peerrevs":null,"urlmaps":null},{"instituterec":{"Acronym":null,"ProPartID":681,"PublicFlag":1,"OrigNameLangCode":"en","OrigNameLangID":15,"FullOrigName":"Katholieke Universiteit Leuven; Department of Animal Production; Laboratory of Nutrition Science","Line1":"Kasteelpark Arenberg 23","Line2":"3001 Heverlee","Line3":null,"Line4":null,"InsID":2059,"FullStandardName":"Katholieke Universiteit Leuven; Departement Dierproductie; Laboratorium voor voedingsleer","Role":null,"RoleID":null,"EncAddress":"Kasteelpark Arenberg 23, 3001 Heverlee, Belgium"},"parent":null,"institutes":null,"references":null,"conferences":null,"datasets":null,"persons":[],"pastpers":null,"subpers":null,"projects":null,"urls":null,"pictures":null,"published":null,"affrefs":null,"collections":null,"thesterms":null,"taxterms":null,"geoterms":null,"thestermsFRIS":null,"nXtins":null,"previns":null,"spcols":null,"resmessage":"no id specified","complete":0,"participantrec":null,"peerrevs":null,"urlmaps":null},{"instituterec":{"Acronym":"IWT","ProPartID":4914,"PublicFlag":1,"OrigNameLangCode":"en","OrigNameLangID":15,"FullOrigName":"Flemish Government; Economy, Science and Innovation; Intistute for Innovation by Science and Technology","Line1":null,"Line2":null,"Line3":null,"Line4":null,"InsID":2180,"FullStandardName":"Vlaamse overheid; Beleidsdomein Economie, Wetenschap en Innovatie; Agentschap voor Innovatie door Wetenschap en Technologie","Role":"Sponsor","RoleID":3,"EncAddress":""},"parent":null,"institutes":null,"references":null,"conferences":null,"datasets":null,"persons":[],"pastpers":null,"subpers":null,"projects":null,"urls":null,"pictures":null,"published":null,"affrefs":null,"collections":null,"thesterms":null,"taxterms":null,"geoterms":null,"thestermsFRIS":null,"nXtins":null,"previns":null,"spcols":null,"resmessage":"no id specified","complete":0,"participantrec":null,"peerrevs":null,"urlmaps":null}],"refs":null,"urls":null,"thesterms":null,"taxterms":null,"geoterms":null,"funderids":[{"FunderID":"981165; ID P103/3E981094","ThestID":181476,"FunderType":"Other contract id"}],"othtermsFRIS":null,"pictures":[],"spcols":[{"SpColID":269,"SpName":"ENCORA"},{"SpColID":165,"SpName":"ENCORA: BENCORE"}],"resmessage":"","complete":1}
