“…Under continuous exposure, there is a tendency for the total internal body concentrations to increase while the animal is exposed to the metal, as Pb accumulates and is not degradable. Several studies have reported an initial dramatic increase in Pb, which then decrease even though the animals are constantly exposed to the Pb (Descamps et al, 1996;Lagisz et al, 2005). Pb levels were reduced by the same amount after PbAc withdrawal with or without GE treatment, suggesting that GE does not exhibit metal-chelating ability and does not provide hepatoprotection against Pb accumulation.…”

“…In summary, the detoxification process evidenced by Descamps et al (1996) in chilopods takes place, at least partially, at the midgut level. The midgut epithelial cells are able to accumulate nonessential metals such as cadmium and lead in granules to reduce their toxic effects.…”

“…The life expectancy of the animals under these conditions was not explored. Descamps et al (1996) demonstrated that centipedes can also be contaminated by ion absorbed through the integument. In the current experimental series of soil-intoxicated animals, control aspects were observed in 12-day animals, whereas in 45-day experiments, a few large vacuoles containing small metal granules were observed.…”

“…Pb detoxification was observed for the centipede Lithobius forficatus exposed through food (Descamps et al, 1996). also showed that intestinal epithelium of O. cincta contains granules in which Pb is stored for a short time and expelled later into the gut lumen.…”
