Results and discussion

Any other information on results incl. tables

In a model freshwater ecosystem 2,4-dichloroaniline caused a permanent change in the ecosystem after 5 and 23 days at the lowest concentration tested of 0.01 mg/l. A new balance had established in relation to the biomass of algae, and the number of daphnia and polyps.
