Encapsulated Fish Cells for Toxicity Testing
Wilfrid Laurier University – June 3, 2008
A biomonitoring tool based on the fish cell line test that can perform toxicity tests on-site. This tool is in the form of a macroencapsulated device filled with fish cell lines. It is inexpensive and easy to use and do not have the problems associated with other kinds of fish tests.
