RESPONSE OF THE BIVALVE UNIO TUMIDUS AND FRESHWATER COMMUNITIES IN ARTIFICIAL STREAMS FOR HAZARD ASSESSMENT OF METHYL METHACRYLATE

摘要

In artificial streams (pilot rivers) supplied with the river water of Gave de Pau (France), we studied the effects of methyl methacrylate (MMA) on the autochthonous bivalve Unio tumidus transferred into the streams and on natural freshwater communities co
