Abstract excerpt

The fresh water crustacean Daphnia magna is widely used as a test organism in aquatic toxicology to assess the adverse effects of individual substances or complex mixtures, e.g. industrial wastewaters. Cultures are held in several European testing laboratories and testing is typically carried out according to internationally standardised protocols. However, despite accounting for many potential confounding...
