Abstract
Acute toxicity of Cr6+, Cu2+ and Cd2+ to D. magna, B. glabrata and B. rerio was evaluated. Cu was the most toxic element to the 3 animals and D. magna the most sensitive organism. The wide spectrum of responses was examined to permit the development of an hypothesis about the environmental effects of these metals.This publication has 11 references indexed in Scilit:
