A preliminary study on the use of gastropod-sediment accumulation factors (GSAFs) to identify gastropods as potential biomonitors of heavy metals contamination.

This study presented the gastropod-sediment accumulation factor (GSAF) of four species of tropical gastropods from Peninsular Malaysia, which focused on the different parts of gastropods namely shell, digestive caecum, operculum and foot. It was found that the different parts of the gastropods could...
