Bioassaying the toxicity of tributyltin-(TBT)-polluted sediment to spat of the bivalve Scrobicularia plana

A solid-phase sediment toxicity bioassay with small spat (2 to 3 mm in length) of the estuarine bivalve Scrobicularia plana (da Costa) was run for 36 d in 1992: lethal and sublethal effects were investigated. While 2 negative control sediments allowed juvenile weight gain in excess of 140% of initia...
