Review of field applications of the Microtox test in Great Lakes waters / by K.L.E. Kaiser, K.R. Lum and V.S. Palabrica. : En13-5/88-38E-PDF
"The Microtox toxicity test, a bacterial bioassay employing the luminescent marine Photobacterium phosphoreum as the test organism has been used in field and laboratory research to test for water contamination in the Detroit River, Lake St. Clair and the St. Lawrence River. The test results have indicated locations and zones of impaired water quality and have been found useful in connection with other studies on the same areas. This review presents new data on the St. Lawrence River and discusses the results in conjunction with other biological, chemical and physical data collected at the same time. It assesses the advantages and limitations of this bioassay for exploratory work on water contamination in the Great Lakes and elsewhere"--Abstract.
