Bioaccumulation of Pyraoxystrobin and Its Predictive Evaluation in Zebrafish
This paper aims to understand the bioaccumulation of pyraoxystrobin in fish. Using a flow-through bioconcentration method, the bioconcentration factor (BCF) and clearance rate of pyraoxystrobin in zebrafish were measured.

Predicting the Bioconcentration Factor in Fish from Molecular Structures
The bioconcentration factor (BCF) is one of the metrics used to evaluate the potential of a substance to bioaccumulate into aquatic organisms. In this work, linear and non-linear regression QSARs were developed for the prediction of log BCF using ...
