This chapter summarizes general methodology and techniques used in freshwater
laboratory toxicity testing; however, most of the discussion is also relevant for saltwater …

In situ bioassays are becoming very popular for laboratory test validation and field
extrapolation. Natural conditions, including environmental variables, affect the “behavior” of …

Abstract The US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has developed a 7‐day
Ceriodaphnia dubia survival and reproduction test for measuring the toxicity of effluents …

The Daphnia 21‐d juvenile production test was ring tested in 1985. The results showed
maximum variability, that is, the effective concentration ranged from less than the lowest …

Acute toxicity effects of sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS), sodium pentachlorophenate (SPCP),
and hexavalent chromium (Cr (VI)) were determined in Ceriodaphnia dubia, Daphnia pulex …

Cladocerans are used in a wide range of applications (aquatic toxicology, experimental
hydrobiology, and aquaculture). Although known to be successfully cultivated with …

Abstract The US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has developed a 7‐d test to
evaluate effluent effects on Ceriodaphnia dubia survival and reproduction. Several foods …

The aim of this study was to compare the 7-day Ceriodaphnia dubia survival and
reproduction test with a 4 day test to evaluate the toxicity of oil refinery effluents. Both shown …

The effect of diet on the health and robustness of Ceriodaphnia dubia was investigated. C
dubia were raised on three diets for 19 generations to evaluate survival and reproduction …

Different renewal diet frequency procedures of Ceriodaphnia dubia were evaluated with
different culture stages: intervening cultures and pilot tests (equivalent to controls in a …
