Results from thirteen years of weekly observations are presented on the nitrogen cycle in Lough Neagh. The data comprised catchment and atmospheric inputs, output via the outflow and calculated losses by sedimentation and denitrification. Nitrate-nitrogen in the rivers is the dominant input fraction

โฆ Synopsis
Eleven years of weekly observations on the phosphorus cycle in Lough Pieagh are analysed. The data comprised inputs, outputs and lake concentrations of the soluble and particulate phosphorus fractions. It is shown that the particulate phosphorus input quickly sediments to the bottom and the particulate phosphorus in the lake is largely made up of phyt'oplankton. The average pliosphorus retention in the lake was 34 O,l0, similar to the particulate phosphorus input. Climate has a big influence on the phosphorus input and sediment release, both of which varied two-fold. A simulation model suggested that suppression of sediment P release wonld reduce lake winter phosphorus concentrations by an average of 29 0'".

## Abstract The effects of lifetime dietary administration of zearalenone, a fungal estrogen produced by __Fusarium__ spp., were studied in FDRL Wistar rats. Animals were fed a control diet or a diet supplemented with zearalenone at levels of 0.1, 1.0 or 3.0 mg per kg body weight per day. The anima
