| Abstract | Interest in aquatic toxicity tests is increasing as more emphasis is placed on control of highly toxic pollutants. While this interest offers an opportunity to increase the use of aquatic toxicity tests, there is a responsibility to recognize their limitations. Aquatic toxicology may well be developed into a recognized professional field along with medicine, pharmacology and others. |
