Abstract
The results from chromium, nickel, and zinc bioassays with three populations of Daphnia magna indicate that the investigated strains are differently sensitive. Sublethal concentrations which have a negative effect on survival and reproduction after 21 days of exposure also cause a significant reduction in the body length and brood size of primiparous females. Problems and consequences of the repeatability of such bioassays between laboratories in different countries are discussed.Entities:
