Application of the iotic ligand model to explain potassium interaction with thallium uptake and toxicity to plankton

Hassler Christel; Chaffin R; Klinger M; Twiss M (SETAC Press, 2007)

Competitive interaction between T1(I) and K was successfully predicted by the biotic ligand model (BLM) for the microalga Chlorella sp. (Chlorophyta; University of Toronto Culture Collection strain 522) during 96-h toxicity ...
Failure of the biotic ligand and free-ion activity models to explain zinc bioaccumulation by Chlorella kesslerii

Hassler Christel; Wilkinson K (Setac, 2003)

Zinc accumulation by Chlorella kesslerii (Chlorophycee) was studied for [Zn2+] ranging from 4 pM to I mM. A first-order uptake flux as predicted by the free ion activity model (FIAM) and the biotic ligand model (BLM) was ...
Some fundamental (and often overlooked) considerations underlying the free ion activity and biotic ligand models

Hassler Christel; Slaveykova- Startcheva Vera; Wilkinson K (SETAC Press, 2004)

Trace metal bioavailability is often evaluated on the basis of steady-state models such as the free ion activity model (FIAM) and the biotic ligand model (BLM). Some of the assumptions underlying these models were verified ...
