Notes

The aim of this study was to contribute to the knowledge of the toxic effects of Cd on ciliate protozoa, studying an organism, Euplotes aediculatus (Pierson, 1946) isolated from activated sludge. The subjects focussed on here were the variations in TLm due to the different states of the culture (growth rate), and influence on cell motility.
