TI  - Modelling 2,4-dichlorophenol bioavailability and bioaccumulation by the 
      freshwater fingernail clam Sphaerium corneum using artificial particles and humic 
      acids.

AB  - The complex and variable composition of natural sediments makes it very difficult 
      to predict the bioavailability and bioaccumulation of sediment-bound 
      contaminants. Several approaches have been proposed to overcome this problem, 
      including an experimental model using artificial particles with or without humic 
      acids as a source of organic matter. For this work, we have applied this 
      experimental model, and also a sample of a natural sediment, to investigate the 
      uptake and bioaccumulation of 2,4-dichlorophenol (2,4-DCP) by Sphaerium corneum. 
      Additionally, the particle-water partition coefficients (K(d)) were calculated. 
      The results showed that the bioaccumulation of 2,4-DCP by clams did not depend 
      solely on the levels of chemical dissolved, but also on the amount sorbed onto 
      the particles and the characteristics and the strength of that binding. This 
      study confirms the value of using artificial particles as a suitable experimental 
      model for assessing the fate of sediment-bound contaminants.
