As an integral component of environmental policy, it has become
essential to regulate and monitor toxic substances. Past emphasis
has been primarily on analytical approaches to the detection of
specific, targeted contaminants, thus allowing chemical
characterisation. However, toxicity testing or biological
assessment is necessary for ecotoxicological evaluation, and this
offers marked benefits and advantages that complement chemical
analysis.
Key issues to be addressed include identification of pertinent
tests, reproducibility and robustness of these tests, and cost
considerations.This book examines these issues and describes and
explains the approaches that have been developed for environmental
toxicity evaluations. Advantages, benefits and drawbacks of the
strategies and methods are highlighted.
Directed equally at ecotoxicologists, industrial chemists,
analytical chemists and environmental consultants, this book is
written in a way that will prove helpful to both new and
experienced practitioners.
