Description

Experimental system for conducting toxicity assessments of contaminants/mixtures on larval stages of tropical marine organisms. Air is slowly fed through the bottom of the funnel, maintaing a level of turbulence in the vessels. This facilitates mixing of contents and prevents settling out of food items.
