Sediment bioassays with oyster larvae
Journal Article
·
· Bull. Environ. Contam. Toxicol.; (United States)
Tests with naturally-occurring sediments are rare and sediment testing methodology is not standardized. The authors present a simple methodology for undertaking sediment bioassays with oyster larvae, and present data from a recent study to prove the utility of this method.
