Laboratory and In situ Selenium Bioaccumulation Assessment in the Benthic Macroinvertebrates Hyalella azteca and Chironomus dilutus
Selenium (Se) bioaccumulation and toxicity in aquatic vertebrates have been thoroughly investigated. Limited information is available on Se bioaccumulation at the base of aquatic food webs. In this study, we evaluated Se bioaccumulation in two benthic macroinvertebrates (BMI), Hyalella azteca and Ch...

Zusammenfassung: | Selenium (Se) bioaccumulation and toxicity in aquatic vertebrates have been thoroughly investigated. Limited information is available on Se bioaccumulation at the base of aquatic food webs. In this study, we evaluated Se bioaccumulation in two benthic macroinvertebrates (BMI), Hyalella azteca and Chironomus dilutus raised in the laboratory and caged in-situ to a Canadian boreal lake e (i.e., McClean Lake) that receives continuous low-level inputs of Se ( |
