Abstract
⺠Passive dosing has some important benefits for the testing HOCs in aquatic media. ⺠P. dosing maintains constant exposure concentrations and gives higher reproducibility. ⺠P. dosing allows quantification of the salting out effect (for seawater toxicity assays). ⺠P. dosing can reproduce real mixtures of HOCs in toxicity tests (levels/proportions). ⺠P. dosing provides an approach for studying toxicity of environmental mixtures of HOCs.
