A microplate-based bioassay for toxicity testing using the large benthic algal species Closterium ehrenbergii

Pollution of water bodies by metals has long been studied but still remains a threat to healthy ecosystems. While most ecotoxicological studies on algae are performed with planktonic standard species such as Raphidocelis subcapitata, benthic algae may depict the majority of the algal flora in rivers...
