Defines an early-life stage procedure for determination of the toxic effects of chemicals and water samples on a cold-water brackish water copepod species under semi-static conditions.

This Technical Specification specifies an early-life stage procedure for determination of the toxic effects of chemicals and water samples on a cold-water brackish water copepod species under semistatic conditions. The biological test variables include survival and development of the early-life stages. The exposure starts with newly hatched (
