Acute toxicity of three alkylbenzene sulfonates to the freshwater algae (Chlamydomonas reinharditii)

The toxicity of three alkylbenzene sulfonate (ABS) surfactants was assessed in 96-hour acute toxicity tests using freshwater algae, Chlamydomonas reinhardtii. Detection events were analysed using flow cytometry and enumerated at the beginning and end of the test. All data are subject of a publication containing method details, full QA/QC, interpretations and conclusions. Citation: Hanana, H., Gilroy, È. A. M., Bartlett, A. J., Bennett, C. J., Brinovcar, C.
