Toxicity of fullerene (C60) to sediment-dwelling invertebrate Chironomus riparius larvae

An environmentally realistic method to test fullerene (C60) toxicity to the benthic organism Chironomus riparius was created by allowing suspended fullerenes to settle down, making a layer on top of the sediment. To test the hypothesis that higher food concentrations will reduce toxic responses, two...
