Bioaccumulation
ECT offers bioaccumulation studies with aquatic organisms (fish, Hyalella), sediment-dwelling invertebrates and soil invertebrates. All studies can be conducted in compliance with GLP and according to national and international guidelines. Additional test designs can be developed in response to specific scientific or regulatory interest. Studies can be performed with radio-labelled as well as non-labelled test substance.
