Relative toxicological importance of aqueous and dietary metal exposure to a freshwater crustacean: implications for risk assessment.

abstract：:A major problem with risk assessment of chemicals is the extrapolation of laboratory single-species toxicity tests, which oversimplify the actual field situation by ignoring species interactions, to natural communities. The authors tested if the bioavailability-normalized 5% hazardous concentration (HC5) estimated fro...
