摘要
The potential of a substance to bioaccumulate in the aquatic environment into an organism depends particularly on its lipophilicity and its metabolism within the organism. Bioaccumulation is an exposure-related parameter and will determine the body burden but it is not an 'effect' or hazard in itself. Therefore, when appropriate, bioaccumulation should be included as an exposure related parameter in the environmental risk assessment of substances.
