Project Summary
The project aims to:
(a) quantify the dose response
relationship of single prioritised metal and metalloid relevant to
mining industries and of the dose response relationship of mixtures
of prioritised metals and metalloids; and
(b) develop a fast and
inexpensive cell based tool for the toxicity assessment of
contaminants including mixtures, and to enhance existing ecological
and health risk assessment methodologies for metals.
