Data on 6 enzymes x protein content x fresh weight x 5 salinities x 4 tissues of Mytilus galloprovincialis

This dataset provides the biochemical data used in the article “Tissue-specific markers of salinity-induced allostasis in the very euryhaline and widespread mussel Mytilus galloprovincialis” (Stakowian et al., 2025, Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology Part A).
It includes the original measurements of enzymatic activities, total protein content and fresh weight obtained from different tissues of M. galloprovincialis exposed to five salinity levels (20, 25, 30, 35, and 40) for 14 and 28 days.

Tissues
dg: Digestive gland
g: Gills
mu: Muscle
ma: Mantle
