Multispecies Freshwater Biomonitor
The Multispecies Freshwater Biomonitor (MFB): non-optic toximeter for real-time biomonitoring and early warning of adverse effects of toxic substance mixtures in surface water, drinking water, waste water, groundwater, sea, sediment and soil. The MFB is available in modular units, works with all types of indicator species and in every type of water without any pretreatment. NEW: BiTox field station, MFB combined with other sensors, autosampler, solar panel and remote data transfer for remote stand-alone operation.Most popular related searches

- High ecological relevance, as several different indicator test species are used simultaneously, e.g. species from different trophic levels, habitats and tolerances.
- Different behaviours (e.g. ventilation, locomotion) with different times and thresholds of response to chemical stress are measured simultaneously and quantitatively.
- Separate alarms for each type of behaviour and test species allow for an environmentally relevant alarm gradient.
- Behavioural patterns of all kinds of aquatic species can be measured, which allows for local adaptation of the system with locally relevant test species. This offers a wide field of applications in waste water purification plants, drinking water works, water authorities and industries.
- The MFB might replace effectively, sensitively and cheaply the use of several existing single-species biomonitors.
