The effects of water chemistry on the toxicity of copper to fathead minnows
TL;DR: The effects of various water chemistry parameters on the toxicity of copper to larval fathead minnows were investigated in this paper, where the effects of water chemistry were found to be similar for different endpoints (growth, survival at different durations).
Journal ArticleDOI
Long-Term Effects of Lead Exposure on Three Generations of Brook Trout (Salvelinus fontinalis)
TL;DR: Exposure of three generations of brook trout (Salvelinus fontinalis) to mean total lead concentrations showed that all second-generation trout exposed to 235 and 474 μg Pb/liter showed positive responses to lead.
Journal ArticleDOI
Acid-volatile sulfide as a factor mediating cadmium and nickel bioavailability in contaminated sediments
Gerald T. Ankley,Gary L. Phipps,Edward N. Leonard,Duane A. Benoit,Vincent R. Mattson,Patricia A. Kosian,Anne M. Cotter,Joseph R. Dierkes,David J. Hansen,John D. Mahony +9 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the influence of acid-volatile sulfide (AVS) on the bioavailability of cadmium and nickel in sediments was investigated and the results support other studies with metal-spiked samples in demonstrating the importance of AVS in determining metal bioavailability.
Journal ArticleDOI
Use of the aquatic oligochaete Lumbriculus variegatus for assessing the toxicity and bioaccumulation of sediment‐associated contaminants
TL;DR: Test methods utilizing the aquatic oligochaete Lumbriculus variegatus to assess the acute and chronic toxicity and the presence of bioaccumulatable compounds in contaminated sediments are described.
Journal ArticleDOI
