| Abstract |
| The purpose of the project is to gain insight into the effect of organic complexation on the physical, chemical and biological processes which determine the uptake and accumulation of Cd an Zn in aquatic organisms of different structural and functional organisation in either marine as fresh water environment (e.g. carp, mussel, water-flea). |
