Résumé :
|
This special volume is the output of the "International Symposium on New Microbiotests for Routine Toxicity Screening and Biomonitoring - Development- Applications- Cost-Effectiveness" which was organized in June 1998 in Brno, Czech Republic. It comprises 60 orginal and peer-reviewed selected papers selected from 100 oral and poster presentations given during this meeting by scientists from many countries worldwide. - Latest overview and state-of-the-art of micorscale bioassays with special emphasis on their applications in various domains of environmental contamination ; Reviews on toxicity testing with microbiotests in a regulatory framework ; - Description and application of microbiotest with lethal and sublethal test criteria, and of their sensitivity in comparison with conventional bioassays ; -Detailed reports on investigation with small-scale toxicity tests on natural waters, wastes, contaminated air, soils and sediments, specific chemicals, and biotoxins ; -Application if new micorbiotests for mutagenicity and genotoxicity screening ; -Critical evaluation of the potential of specific microiotests as alternatives to conventional toxicity tests.
