Journal ArticleDOI
Dissolution of resin acids, retene and wood sterols from contaminated lake sediments.
TL;DR: Erosion and hydrology adjacent to the sediment surface, as well as risks from dredging activities of sediments, may expose lake biota to bioactive chemicals.
Journal ArticleDOI
Toxicity of three forms of copper to the Chironomus tentans in both the aquatic and sediment media
TL;DR: The toxicity of copper (Cu) to the Chironomus tentans was studied using both aquatic and sediment-based media as discussed by the authors, and the pore water concentration of Cu and attempted to link sediment toxicity to metal availablity in pORE water.
Journal ArticleDOI
Update on the use of Pristina longiseta Ehrenberg, 1828 (Oligochaeta: Naididae) as a toxicity test organism
Gleyson Borges Castro,Fernanda Pinheiro,Mayara Caroline Felipe,Aline Christine Bernegossi,D. A. Girolli,Guilherme Rossi Gorni,Juliano José Corbi +6 more
TL;DR: The results showed a successful use of Pristina longiseta as tropical test organism, which presented easy laboratory rearing and responded to the classical ecotoxicological index.
Journal ArticleDOI
Assessment of burrowing behavior of freshwater juvenile mussels in sediment
TL;DR: Based on species and age of mussels tested, juvenile mussels up to an age of at at least 20 wk and a length of at least 5 mm readily burrow into sediment and likely would be exposed to contaminants in whole sediment and associated pore water throughout a laboratory sediment toxicity test.
Journal ArticleDOI
A comparative study of different diets to optimize cultivation of Hyalella azteca in the laboratory.
Renata Fracácio,Geisa Soares Dias,Pedro Antônio Zagatto,Paulo Maurício Bidinotto,Paulo Silas Oliveira da Silva +4 more
TL;DR: The aim of this study was to assess the influence of four diets on the laboratory cultivation of H. azteca, seeking to improve production of young specimens through reduced mortality and better growth and number of offspring per couple.
