Abstract:

This bibliography is directed toward the support of sediment bioassays being conducted in the Puget Sound region. However, it also includes information on water column bioassays which may contain methods or results pertinent to sediment assays. This is often the case since many sediment bioassays are adaptations of earlier water column assays e.g., embryolarval assays, Microtox. The bibliography addresses seven basic areas Methods-- Protocols--Reviews, Amphipod bioassays, Embryolarval bioassays, Polychaete bioassays, Microtox bacterial luminescence bioassays, Geoduck bioassays, Multiple testing protocols.
