| Abstract | The present study investigates how dissolved organic matter (DOM) alters copper bioavailability at environmentally relevant concentrations (1-5 microg/L of dissolved copper, 1-4 mg/L of dissolved organic copper). A methodology combining two biological endpoints (short-term and steady-state bioaccumulation of copper by the aquatic moss Fontinalis antipyretica) and a sampling of labile copper with diffusion gradient in thin films (DGT) is proposed for batch experiments conducted with mineral water and various DOM, ethylenediaminetetra-acetic acid (EDTA), humic acid, and natural Seine River (France) extracts (hydrophobic and transphilic fractions). All types of DOM reduce the bioavailability of copper to aquatic mosses, and this reduction was more pronounced for the short-term biological endpoint, which was taken as being representative for environmental exposure. Labile copper sampled with DGT made it possible to estimate short-term bioaccumulation in the case of EDTA and natural Seine River extracts. With humic acid solutions, however, labile copper was lower than bioavailable copper. This result suggests that at realistic metal concentrations and with certain types of natural DOM, bioavailable copper might comprise not only inorganic copper but also some weak organic complexes. Hence, labile copper, in situ sampled with DGT, might not systematically overestimate bioavailable copper, as suggested previously on the basis of in vitro toxicity studies. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
