Comparisons were made of the accumulation of a polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB) mixture from sediments and from water by the benthic worm Nereis diversicolor. Uptake from sediments was dose-dependent, attaining equilibrium concentration factors of approximately 3 to 4 after 2 months. Subsequent PCB el
Laboratory experiments were designed to assess the relative importance of root vs shoot uptake of mercury by the submerged isoetid aquatic macrophyte Eriocaulon septangu- lare. Roots of mature plants that had been cultured for 31 days in sediments contaminated with non-toxic (approx. 1 I~g g 1) conc
