Relevance of joint action toxicity evaluations in setting realistic environmental safe limits of heavy metals
Article Abstract:
Types of toxicological interactions existing between heavy metals, which are prominent in effluents of some industrial establishments in Lagos State, Nigeria, are evaluated by testing the acute toxicity tests of the metal compounds. The significance of the results in setting water quality criteria aimed at protecting aquatic biota and achieving effective environmental protection are discussed.
