The Growth of Monoraphidium sp. and Scenedesmus sp. Cells in the Presence of Thorium
Toxicity of thorium by Monoraphidium sp. and Scenedesmus sp. was studied. Microalgal cultures were inoculated in ASM‐1 medium in presence and absence of thorium. Its effect was monitored by direct counting on Fuchs‐Rosenthal chamber and with software. The toxicity of thorium over the species was observed for concentrations over 50.0 mg/L. After 30 days,

Arthropod eyes are built of repeating units named ommatidia. Each single ommatidium unit contains a cluster of photoreceptor cells surrounded by support cells and pigment cells. The insect Copium eye ommatidia include additional calcium‐phosphate deposits, not described in insects to date, which can be examined today using a combined set of modern ...
