EVALUATION OF CHEMICAL OXIDIZERS AND AN ELECTRON-TRANSPORT INHIBITOR IN A SOIL AND WATER EXTRACTION STUDY USING A DIRECT BIOLUMINESCENCE-REDUCTION TOXICITY TEST THAT EMPLOYS THE MARINE BACTERIUM, VIBRIO-HARVEYI
Kw. Thomulka et Jh. Lange, EVALUATION OF CHEMICAL OXIDIZERS AND AN ELECTRON-TRANSPORT INHIBITOR IN A SOIL AND WATER EXTRACTION STUDY USING A DIRECT BIOLUMINESCENCE-REDUCTION TOXICITY TEST THAT EMPLOYS THE MARINE BACTERIUM, VIBRIO-HARVEYI, Fresenius environmental bulletin, 3(6), 1994, pp. 365-370
Toxicity of oxidizers and an electron transport inhibitor was evaluate
d using a soil and water mixture that was extracted with and without H
Cl. Vibrio harveyi was used, in a direct bioluminescence reduction ass
ay, as the test organism. These results, in comparison to water studie
s, suggest that soil binds or reacts with these chemicals, reducing to
xicity.
