The relationship between cellular protein content and selenium accumulation in freshwater microalgae
Integrated Environmental Assessment and Management, EarlyView.Abstract Variability in the bioconcentration of selenium (Se) by primary producers at the base of the food web results in uncertainty in predictions of bioaccumulation and ecological risk to higher trophic level organisms. Water chemistry, speciation of Se, and periphyton community composition have all been suggested as factors that contribute to ...
