Ecotoxicity

 To assess ecotoxicity at different trophic levels, multi-species test methods like these are often used:


    •  Acute toxicity to freshwater fish
    • Twenty-one (21) days of prolonged toxicity in fish
    • Acute toxicity in algae (growth inhibition test)
    • Caenorhbditis elegans based ecotoxicity assay
    • Acute toxicity in earthworms
    • Acute immobilization toxicity test in Daphnia
    • Chronic toxicity test for Daphnia reproduction
