To assess whether exposed Daphnia can quickly recover from combined toxicity of bloom‐derived stressors, we exposed Daphnia similoides to mixtures of ammonia (0, 0.37, and 0.58 mg L−1) and dissolved microcystin‐LR (0, 10, 30, and 100 µg L−1) in a full factorial design for fourteen days and subsequently allowed them to recover for seven days. During the exposure, we observed that ...
Abstract: The Thamnotoxkit FTM was evaluated for detecting cyanobacterial toxins as they may be hazardous to human health if they reach drinking water networks or if people are exposed through recreational activity. This test kit is a 24-hour biosassay using larvae of the freshwater anostracan crustaceanThamnocephalus platyurus hatched from cysts. Nine freeze-driedMicrocystis ...
Abstract: The Thamnotoxkit FTM was evaluated for detecting cyanobacterial toxins compared with the rat hepatocyte test and mouse test. This test kit is a 24-hour biosassay using larvae of the freshwater anostracan crustaceanThamnocephalus platyurus hatched from cysts. Thirteen freeze-dried cyanobacterial samples from freshwaters of Hungary, ...
