Toxic Effects of Heavy Metals and Organic Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons in Sediment Porewater on the Amphipod <i>Hyalella azteca</i> and Zebrafish <i>Brachydanio rerio</i> Embryos from Different Rivers in Taiwan

Toxic Effects of Heavy Metals and Organic Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons in Sediment Porewater on the Amphipod <i>Hyalella azteca</i> and Zebrafish <i>Brachydanio rerio</i> Embryos from Different Rivers in Taiwan

The amphipod (<i>Hyalella azteca</i>) and zebrafish (<i>Brachydanio rerio</i>) embryos were used for toxicological sediment porewater testing. Porewaters from 35 sampling stations of eight streams in southern Taiwan were screened for toxic effects and their relationship with...
