Silver accumulation in Daphnia magna in the presence of reactive sulfide

Previously, we demonstrated a higher silver body burden when Daphnia magna were exposed to silver in the presence of environmentally relevant concentrations (25 nM) of reactive sulfide, but the explanation was unclear. In the present study, D. magna were exposed to AgNO3 (0.93 microg Ag/L=8.6 nM as a mixture of cold Ag and (110m)Ag) in synthetic water in either the presence or absence of 25 nM sulfide as zinc sulfide clusters. After 1-h …
