A review on the effects of antimicrobials use in cultures of planktonic organisms: a procedure for ecological experiments

ABSTRACT Many questions about the role of planktonic organisms remain unanswered because of the difficulty in obtaining a medium where bacteria and fungi are not present. Moreover, an excess load of these microorganisms in phytoplankton cultures and zooplankton organisms may cause nutrient competiti...
