...Inorganic arsenicals are generally more toxic than organic forms (Eisler, 1988a). Inorganic arsenic (V) is acutely toxic to freshwater aquatic animals at concentrations as low as 850 ppbll' in water, and can affect marine plants at concentrations as low as 13 to 56 ppbll' in water and marine animals at 2,319 ppbll' in water (EPA, 1986). Klapow and Lewis (1979) proposed a marine water quality standard of 8 ppbll' for total arsenic....
