摘要：

Effects of tributyltin (TBT), dibutyltin (DBT), and monobutyltin (MBT) on the in vitro phagocytic activity of hemocytes from three marine bivalve species, Mytilus edulis, Mya arenaria, and Mactromeris polynyma, were determined using flow cytometry. Phagocytosis was reduced with increasing doses of TBT and DBT The toxicity of butyltins on hemocytes decreased in the order DBT > TBT > MET, and comparison of the relative sensitivity of the three species showed that blue mussels (M. edulis) were more tolerant of butyltin compounds than both clam species. Toxicity mechanisms of butyltins are discussed and compared to those of other metals.
