Journal ArticleDOI
Cadmium, zinc, lead and copper inChironomus riparius (Meigen) larvae (Diptera, Chironomidae): uptake and effects
TL;DR: In this article, the uptake kinetics and effects of Cadmium, Zn, Pb and Cu uptake and effects in larvae of Chironomus riparius (Meigen) were studied in an integrated laboratory investigation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Trace metals in a littoral foodweb: concentrations in organisms, sediment and water.
TL;DR: It is concluded that various explanations for the differences in pollutant residues, e.g. trophic level, feeding habit, body weight, association with the substrate, physiological equipment and abiotic factors, are valid.
Journal ArticleDOI
Abiotic and biotic factors influencing in situ trace metal levels in macroinvertebrates in freshwater ecosystems
TL;DR: In this article, the potential of a multiple regression model, including both biotic and abiotic variables, to predict trace metal levels (Cd, Pb, Cu and Zn) in benthic invertebrate communities from various aquatic habitats in The Netherlands.
Journal ArticleDOI
The fate of trace metals during the metamorphosis of chironomids (diptera, chironomidae).
TL;DR: The fate of the trace metals zinc, cadmium and copper during the metamorphosis of chironomids was studied and the ecotoxicological consequences of trace metal transfer are discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI
The concentration of cadmium, lead, copper and zinc in Chironomus gr. thummi larvae (Diptera, Chironomidae) with deformed versus normal menta
TL;DR: The concentrations of Cd, Pb, Cu and Zn inChironomus gr.thummi were determined for 4th instar larvae from the polluted Dyle River and comparison was made between larvae with deformed and normal menta.
