The effects of salinity on the toxicity of Cadmium to Corophium insidiosum

The effects of different salinities (10-15-20-25 and 36 ) on the sensitivity of the Crustacea Amphipoda Corophium insidiosum (Crawford, 1937) to the toxic effects of cadmium were investigated using a 96h toxicity test. Amphipods were tolerant to a broad range of salinity. The LC50 values showed a highest sensitivity to cadmium at lowest salinities
