Popis: Dynamic (flow-through) algal bioassays generally have been found to be more sensitive to toxicants than have static (batch) bioassays, and have led to lower estimates of maximum allowable toxicant concentrations. When growth of Selenastrum capricornutum is optimized, both systems are equally sensitive and quantitatively related to toxicant concentration.
