Abstract |
Groups of Neanthes arenaceodentata were fed different diets for four weeks before exposure to copper in seawater. Differences in sensitivity were found between worms fed live algae compared with those fed dried diets. Differences in sensitivity to copper were also noted after feeding different dried diets. Possible effects of different copper accumulation by diet and of the use of food particles for tube building are discussed. (Copyright American Society for Testing and Materials, 1986.) |
