"Explicit standard or reference methods for determining the acute lethal toxicity of effluents to the crustacean "waterflea" Daphnia magna are described in this report. Specific instructions for performing and reporting acute lethality tests with samples of effluent are given, and the guidance provided in the generic methodology document "Acute Lethality Test Using Daphnia spp".is built upon (Environment Canada, 1990a)"--Abstract.

Book Description
"The present report represents the second edition of Reference Method EPS 1/RM/13, published in July 1990 and amended in May 1996 (EC, 1990b, including its May 1996 Amendments). It supersedes that earlier version, and is to be applied as Environment Canada's current reference method for determining the acute lethality of effluents to rainbow trout"--Abstract, page v.

Book Description
This broad review is the first to gather comprehensive information on the complete contemporary range of toxicity testing procedures and hazard assessment procedures, which is normally scattered and difficult to find. The two-volume set provides a consistent, template-based approach, linking relevant information on background, theory and practice to each bioassay. Volume 1 covers small-scale toxicity test methods. Includes extensive glossary.

Book Description
This document describes methods recommended by Environment Canada for performing acute lethal toxicity tests with daphnids. General or universal conditions and procedures are outlined for undertaking an acute lethality test using a variety of test materials. Additional conditions and procedures are stipulated which are specific for assessing samples of chemicals, effluents, elutriates, leachates, or receiving waters. Included are instructions on culturing conditions and requirements, sample handling and storage, test facility requirements, procedures for preparing test solutions and test initiation, specified test conditions, appropriate observations and measurements, endpoints, methods of calculation, and the use of reference toxicants.
Optimization and Applicability of Bioprocesses

Book Description
This book argues that the sustainable management of resources requires a systematic approach that primarily involves the integration of green innovative biotechnological strategies and eco-engineering. It discusses how microbial community intelligence can be used for waste management and bio-remediation and explains how biological processes can be optimized by integrating genomics tools to provide perspectives on sustainable development. The book describes the application of modern molecular techniques such as fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH), highly sensitive catalyzed reporter deposition (CARD)-FISH, in situ DNA-hybridization chain reaction (HCR) and methods for detecting mRNA and/or functional genes to optimize bioprocessess. These techniques, supplemented with metagenomic analysis, reveal that a large proportion of micro-organisms still remain to be identified and also that they play a vital role in establishing bioprocesses.
