Recent work has shown that the metabolic responses of an organism to dietary properties are important determinants of the physiological processing of calories and nutrients. The effects of diet on the respiratory metabolism of a species is an especia

Several aquatic plants (Azolla filiculoides, Cladophora sp., Elodea sp., and Lemna sp.) were fed singly to groups of 30 juvenile Malaysian prawns (Macrobrachium rosenbergii) for 28 days, and comparisons were made with control prawns fed Ralston Purin

The input of selenium from subsurface agricultural drainage into surface water systems can result in the accumulation of toxic concentrations of selenium in aquatic food chains. Elevated selenium concentrations in aquatic systems is a significant env

The bioaccumulation and toxicity of selenium in a simple aquatic food chain was investigated by feeding a diet of seleniferous algae (Selenastrum capricornutum) to fourth instar midge (Chironomus decorus) larvae. Treatment diets consisted of S. capri

The increased flux of selenium into aquatic ecosystems due to anthropogenic activities has resulted in the degradation of several systems. Initial experiments examined the comparative acute toxicity of waterborne selenate, selenite, and seleno-DL-met

Elevated concentrations of the trace element selenium (Se) have resulted in the degradation of several aquatic ecosystems. This study evaluated the comparative toxicity of several aqueous chemical species of selenium to an aquatic cladoceran, Daphnia

A laboratory culture method for the benthic invertebrate Chironomus decorus Johannsen is described in detail. The culture requires minimal maintenance and produces an abundant supply of midge larvae throughout the year for many types of bioassays. Ap
