The influence of complexation and pH on individual and combined heavy metal toxicity to freshwater green alga / M.E. Starodub ... [et al.].: En13-5/86-179E-PDF

"The effect of metal complexation and pH on heavy metal (Cu, Zn, Pb) toxicity to a freshwater alga, Scenedesmus quadricauda was investigated. It was observed that extracellular excretion produced by S. quadricauda was capable of binding heavy metals and reducing their single and combined toxicities"--Exec. summary.
