Ceriodaphnia affinis on different media.xlsx

This is metedata for the article "Application of the ADaM medium in toxicological investigations on the example of Ceriodaphnia affinis Lilljeborg". This research was made as a student work, and we will continue to investigate the differences between culture media for crustaceans in the future.The aim of this work was to compare the biological characteristics and the sensitivity to the toxic effect of the crustaceans Ceriodaphnia affinis (Lilljeborg, 1902) during cultivation on the conditioned tap water and the artificial medium ADaM. The novelty of the research is the application of the medium ADaM for bioassay using the particular species of daphniids C. affinis. The relevance of this work is to find new ways to optimize the culture conditions for crustaceans and the standardization of toxicological studies conditions.We hope, that the followig article would be of interest to readers of "Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry" because Ceriodaphnia is a common test organism used by many of its readership.
