Toxicological investigation and evaluation of drinking-water pollution caused by chemical wastes

open access: yesEcotoxicology and Environmental Safety, 1984
Acute, subacute, in vitro, and animal experiments were performed in the spring and fall of 1981. In the course of these investigations, samples from bank-filtered drinking-water wells of Vác, a town along the Danube; from three neighboring observation wells; from water transported from the opposite side of the Danube; from a drinking-water well of a ...
