Journal ArticleDOI

Ecotoxicology of metals in aquatic sediments: binding and release, bioavailability, risk assessment, and remediation

TL;DR: In this paper, the acid-volatile sulfide (AVS) model is used to model the metal binding phases in the aerobic layer of sediments, including iron and manganese oxyhydroxides (FeOOH and MnOOH) and particulate organic carbon (POC).
Journal ArticleDOI

A practical and user-friendly toxicity classification system with microbiotests for natural waters and wastewaters.

TL;DR: An alternative toxicity classification system that was easier to apply and substantially more cost effective than any of the earlier methods was developed and applied in the framework of a cooperation agreement between the Flemish community in Belgium and central and eastern Europe.
Journal ArticleDOI

Proposal for a short-term toxicity test with Artemia nauplii

TL;DR: A simple, inexpensive and reliable short-term routine test with Artemia larvae is proposed, based on the determination of the LC50-24 hr of instar II–III nauplii of a specific Artemia strain.
Journal ArticleDOI

Decapsulation of Artemia cysts: A simple technique for the improvement of the use of brine shrimp in aquaculture

TL;DR: The technology developed by the authors for the routine decapsulation of Artemia cysts is described and the advantages which result from the use of decapsulated cysts in aquacultural hatcheries are discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Acute toxicity tests using rotifers. IV. Effects of cyst age, temperature, and salinity on the sensitivity of Brachionus calyciflorus.

TL;DR: Several aspects of the response to toxicants using a standardized toxicity test with the freshwater rotifer Brachionus calyciflorus are described, indicating very consistent test sensitivity and a practical limit on toxicant exposure.
