Bioconcentration studies with the freshwater amphipod Hyalella azteca: are the results predictive of bioconcentration in fish? [PDF]
Environmental Science and Pollution Research, 2018 Bioconcentration factors (BCF) for regulatory purposes are usually determined by fish flow-through tests according to technical guidance document OECD 305. Fish bioconcentration studies are time consuming, expensive, and use many laboratory animals. The aim of this study was to investigate whether the freshwater amphipod Hyalella azteca can be used as ...

A framework for understanding the bioconcentration of surfactants in fish
Environmental Science: Processes & Impacts, 2023 Bioconcentration of surfactants is described using chemical space plots of k U , k T and BCF as a function of the membrane/water distribution coefficient and fraction of neutral species in water.

Bioconcentration as a key driver of Hg bioaccumulation in high-trophic-level fish [PDF]
BiogeosciencesThe ability of monomethylmercury (MMHg+) to bioaccumulate in seafood is of concern due to its neurotoxic properties. The challenge in understanding MMHg+ bioaccumulation lies in the fact that its levels in higher trophic levels result from both ...

An assessment of the bioaccumulation of estrone in Daphnia magna [PDF]
, 2004 The bioaccumulation of estrone by Daphnia magna was determined. Direct uptake via the aqueous medium occurred within the first 16 hours. A bioconcentration factor of 228 was established over all temporal periods.
