  abstract = {{A}nthropogenic fibres are an emerging pollutant worldwide. {T}he {C}an {G}io mangrove area is located downstream of the {S}aigon {R}iver, and is characterised by high level of anthropogenic fibres originating from domestic and industrial textile and apparel manufacturing. {I}n this area, biota is thus subjected to a high potential risk of anthropogenic fibre contamination. {T}his study aims to characterise the accumulation of anthropogenic fibres in different tissues, i.e. gills, digestive systems, and remaining tissues, of white clams ({M}eretrix lyrata) cultivated in the {C}an {G}io beach sand, during a seven-month sampling period. {T}he results showed an average concentration of 3.6 +/- 2.1 fibres individual-1 or 2.7 +/- 2.4 fibres g-1 ww. {H}igher fibre accumulation was observed in remaining tissues than in gills and digestive systems, and no temporal variation was observed in all clam tissues. {T}he intake of fibres by humans consuming clams was estimated to be 324 fibres inhabitant-1 yr- 1.},
