RESIN ACIDS IN BILE SAMPLES FROM FISH INHABITING MARINE WATERS AFFECTED BY PULP MILL EFFLUENTS

Cellulose production in Chile has increased noticeably during recent years. Some pulp mili currently released effluents into the ocean, a trend that most these plants seem likely to continue in the future. No standardized protocols exist for evaluating potential environmental effects of such dumping...
