The Case for Simultaneous Toxicity Testing at Different Levels of Biological Organization

摘要: The structure and organization of hazard evaluation toxicity testing protocols are discussed. It was concluded that more expensive, sophisticated tests can be carried out efficiently if the results from simpler available when complex designed. Simultaneous at different levels biological is supported. author believes there no compelling evidence single-species used to predict reliable responses organization. Although higher may many less expensive than or comparable in cost long-term, continuous-flow exposure single species.
