Abstract:Evaluation of the toxicity of binary mixtures of copper, zinc, and arsenic on Daphnia obtusa (Kurz, 1874) (Cladocera, Crustacea)The protection of aquatic ecosystems is based on environmental norms that consider the maximum concentration allowed for individual chemical substances. Nevertheless, in reality there are complex mixtures in which multiple interactions among the constituents occur (i.e. additive, synergic and antagonistic). Among the chemical agents that are present in high concentrations in the aquat… Show more
