Stability and replicability of bioassays used in the "battery of tests" approach for aquatic ecosystem screening / B.J. Dutka.: En13-5/91-72E-PDF

"Information on the reliability of a bioassay is usually attained through the standardization of the method's protocols. This theoretically ensures that all laboratories following the method will attain the same result with the same chemical or sample. However, before we can establish whether or not the results are the same or similar we must know the innate variability of each test system that we use. In this report are shown the stability over time and replicability of the various bioassays used in the battery of tests approach"--Abstract.
