Abstract | The compendium documents the procedure for conducting a standard reference toxicity test using sodium pentachlorophenate (NaPCP) as the toxicant and larval Pimephales promelas (fathead minnows) as the test organism. The test estimates the fitness, condition, and sensitivity of the organisms used in a definitive toxicity test. It allows for inter- and intralaboratory comparisons of toxicity information and provides an experimental control. |
