Environmental hazard screening of a metal-polluted site using pressurized liquid extraction and two In Vitro bioassays
Article Abstract:
The study aims to evaluate a combination of pressurized liquid extraction and in vitro bioassays for hazard assessment of metal-polluted sites. The results concluded that chemical analyses were not an accurate indicator of the potential toxic effect of the soil.
