The Algerian west coast is the prime recipient ofsev eral forms of pollution; hence, the necessity for an impact assessment of this coastal pollution using a suite ofr ecommended marine biomarkers, including lysosomal membrane stability in living cells by the Neutral Red Retention Time (NRRT) method, the evaluation ofmicron ucleus (MN) frequency, and the determination ofacet ylcholinesterase (AChE) activity in mussels Mytilus galloprovincialis, sampled from the large, polluted Oran Harbour (OH) and the Maˆarouf( Mrf) marine mussel farm between July 2005 and April 2006. The difference in the variations oft he annual physical parameters between OH and Mrfco rresponds to the influence ofthe domestic and industrial sewage discharged by the city ofO ran. The biological data ofthe mussels (condition index, protein content) recorded at both sites were related to their natural reproductive cycle. This indicated that intrinsic variation between the sites due to different mussel development phases was minimal. The variation in the AChE activity of some organs ofO H and Mrfm ussels, with minimal inhibition in July and a higher NRRT recorded in the granular haemocytes in the Mrfthan in the OH mussels during the autumn and spring, depends on the quality ofthe biotope and on generic stress factors. Moreover, the variation in MN frequency, in general reflecting a non-significant seasonal and spatial genotoxic effect ofthe contamination at the two sampling sites, requires further investigations regarding biotic and abiotic variations.

An active biomonitoring study was carried out on the Algerian west coast using wild reference mussels (Mytilus galloprovincialis) sampled from the Kristel (K) site and transplanted in net cages during one month (between May and June 2007) to Oran Harbour (OH) and Mostaganem Harbour (MH), areas characterised by high levels of urban and industrial pollution. The biological response of the mussels was evaluated by their condition index and the use of a general stress biomarker (evaluation of lysosomal membrane stability: the neutral red retention time (NRRT) method), a genotoxic effects biomarker (determination of micronuclei (MN) frequency) and a neurotoxic effects biomarker (determination of the acetylcholinesterase (AChE) concentration). Compared to the K reference specimens, OH and MH caged mussels presented a significant decrease of NRRT in lysosomal haemocytes (56.45±26.48 min and 67.25±22.77 min, respectively) (78±16.97 min for K mussels), an MN frequency respectively 7.3 and 9 times higher in the haemocytes and the gill cells of the OH caged mussels, and 7.2 and 6.4 times higher in the two tissues of the MH caged mussels. Significant inhibition of AChE activity was noted in the gills (16.93±3.1 nmol min−1 mg prot−1) and the digestive gland (7.69±1.79 nmol min−1 mg prot−1) of the OH mussels, but only in the gills (23.21±5.94 nmol min−1 mg prot−1) of the MH mussels, compared to the organs of the K control specimens (35.9±6.4 nmol min−1 mg prot−1 in the gills and 11.17±0.49 nmol min−1 mg prot−1 in the digestive gland). This study reflects the interest in such in situ biomonitoring assays and the utility of these biomarkers for assessing the effects of pollution in the Algerian coastal marine environment.
