TI  - The influence of experimental conditions on the assessment of the toxicity of 
      2,4-dichlorophenol to anaerobic degradative bacteria.
PG  - 61-3
AB  - The toxicity of 2,4-dichlorophenol (2,4-DCP) to anaerobic bacteria in refuse 
      cultures was investigated at two temperatures (30 and 37 degrees C) and after two 
      different exposure periods to the toxicants. It was shown that at 0.52mM 2,4-DCP 
      the time of exposure of microorganisms to 2,4-DCP affected the relative activity 
      (Av) of the production of methane. Av values at the beginning of the steady-state 
      phase were lower than those recorded two weeks later. The incubation temperature 
      selected also critically affected the assessment of anaerobic toxicity; at 37 
      degrees C an imbalance of the activities of fermentative bacteria and acetogens 
      with those of methanogens was observed.
