Notes
The Colpidium campylum 24 hr IC50 ciliate protozoan growth inhibition test procedure was appraised during a recently-held canadian workshop in which several participants experienced this bioassay. Following constructive comments and suggestions made by workshop participants, all steps of the method were reviewed. As a result of this expercise, an improved version of this bioassay is now proposed as a standard protozoan test for aquatic ecotoxicology. The new protocol is detailed herein.
