摘要: A simple, miniaturized algal assay procedure using microplates has been developed to assess aquatic toxicity with the green alga, Selenastrum capricornutum. Cell count-generated EC50 data comparisons classic flasks have indicated good agreement between two methods following toxic assessment of various wastewater samples and metal solutions. Parametric (ATP us cell counts) microplate method show equally correlation. The technique is highly versatile in conducting basic bioassays for varying times (4-hour, 4-day, 8-day EC50's) differing parameters, depending on set objectives. Other interesting features include handling rapidity, economy, space-saving convenience, automation potential.
