摘要
The nematode Caenorhabditis elegans was exposed over a whole life-cycle (72 h) to several concentrations of 4-nonylphenol (NP; nominal concentrations: 0-350 mug/l). Growth and reproduction of C. elegans were enhanced at NP concentrations of 66 and 40 mug/l, respectively, with effects showing dose-response relationships. These stimulatory effects might be of ecological relevance in benthic habitats, where organisms can be exposed to high concentrations of NP. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
