| Abstract: | Background, aim, and scope Alqueva Reservoir is the biggest artificial freshwater reservoir in Europe and is an important water supply for human and
agricultural consumption in the Alentejo region (Portugal). Pollution can impair environmental and human health status, and
to assure water quality and ecological balance, it is crucial to frequently monitor water supplies. In this study, we used
an ecotoxicological test battery to identify the potential toxicity of water from this reservoir. |
