title: Application of Test Battery for Assessing the Toxicity of Marine Sediments in Vostok Bay (Peter the Great Bay, Sea of Japan)
abstract: This paper presents the results of a toxicity assessment of marine sediments from Vostok Bay based on responses of three testing organisms: the diatom Phaeodactylum tricornutum (Bohlin, 1897), nauplii of the brine shrimp Artemia salina (Linnaeus, 1758), and embryos and larvae of the sand dollar Scaphechinus mirabilis (Agassiz, 1864).
