摘要
A 1996 acute lethal toxicity survey indicated that 36% of Canadian mills (31 our of 85) experienced one or more episodes of acute lethal toxicity to rainbow trout. In terms of overall performance, if only the data from the 80 mills with secondary treatment are examined then 92% of the rainbow trout tests and 98% of the Daphnia magna tests performed by the industry were successful.
