Correlation of the five test methods to assess chemical XXXX and relation to physical properties.

@entity137 @entity26 @entity12158 @entity37258 @entity32215 @entity7021
Biological tests using @entity7021 (LC50 and @entity26 uptake test), Moina macrocopa (LC50), and @entity37258 (head regeneration test and LC50) were carried out in order to clarify the mutual relationship of these test methods. The @entity26 uptake rate of @entity7021 was not effective to assess chemical @entity137 . Adding the results of the growth inhibition test of @entity12158 (Yoshioka, Y., Ose, Y., and Sato, T. (1985). Sci. Total Environ. 43, 149-157), the correlation coefficients between each two test methods were calculated. The test results except EC50 and LC50 of @entity37258 showed a good relation to each other. We determined the solubility and the @entity32215 /water partition coefficient (P) of some chemicals used in the test. Log P interpreted the @entity137 in mol/liter unit but not in mg/liter. Solubility was not a useful descripter neither in mol/liter nor in mg/liter unit.
