Abstract Information concerning mineral nutrition of fish and marine crustaceans is rather
limited compared to that available for terrestrial animals; however, significant advances have …

In order to conduct experiments on interactions between animals and food organisms, it is
necessary to develop a medium that adequately supports the growth of both algae and …

The suitability of various synthetic media for the culture of Daphnia magna was tested.
Daphnids cultured in a standard medium for toxicity testing proposed by ISO showed low …

We reared Daphnia pulex in a fully defined medium at seven calcium (Ca) concentrations
(0.1, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 5, and 10 mg Ca L− 1), two mixed algal densities (high food: 30 mg …

Effects of sublethal concentrations of chlorpyrifos (ranging from 0.005 (0.01 LC50) to 0.500
μg/L (1 LC50)) on population characteristics of individual cultures of Daphnia carinata were …

The effect of long-term copper acclimation of the freshwater green algae
Pseudokirchneriella subcapitata to copper was investigated using different physiological …

The cladoceran Daphnia pulex is well established as a model for ecotoxicology. Here, we
show that D. pulex is also useful for investigating the effects of toxins on the heart in situ and …

Anthropogenic activity has dramatically deteriorated aquatic ecosystems in recent years.
Such environmental alterations could change the primary producers' composition …

Field and laboratory experiments were conducted to investigate the excretion stoichiometry
of nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) of two benthic macroinvertebrate grazers, the crayfish …

A performance-based, tiered approach was used to evaluate survival, growth, and
reproduction ofDaphnia magnain three selected synthetic media: Elendt M4, Elendt M7, and …
