This is an absolutely innovative article. Absolutely new experimental data, new facts on how chemical pollutants inhibit water filtration by a common freshwater mollusk, bivalve freshwater mussels Unio tumidus.
These facts are of huge importance to freshwater safety and sustainability.
Moreover, the paper formulated a totally inovative concept:
This concept is a revolution in conceptual apparatus of environmental toxicology. This is a substancial contribution to scientific terminology. The very expression
is a new scientific term.
This paper is a substancial contribution to environmental science, water science, environmental toxicology. The article is highly recommended.
