Acid volatile sulfide predicts the acute toxicity of cadmium and nickel in sediments

Laboratory toxicity tests using amphipods, oligochaetes and snalils with spiked freshwater and marine sediments and with contaminated sediments collected from an EPA Superfund site demonstrate that no significant mortality occurrs relative to controls if the molar concentration of acid volatile sulf...

Zusammenfassung:Laboratory toxicity tests using amphipods, oligochaetes and snalils with spiked freshwater and marine sediments and with contaminated sediments collected from an EPA Superfund site demonstrate that no significant mortality occurrs relative to controls if the molar concentration of acid volatile sulfide (AVS) is greater than the concentration of cadmium or nickel.
