Development of Models for the Prediction of Short-term and Long-term Toxicity to Hyalella azteca from Separate Exposures to Nickel and Cadmium

This study investigated whether principles of the Biotic Ligand Model (BLM), originally developed to predict acute metal toxicity to fish, may be applied to metal accumulation and toxicity in short-term and long-term exposures of Hyalella azteca, an epibenthic invertebrate. In both short-term and...
