    Effect of pH on Arsenate and Arsenite Toxicity to Luminescent Bacteria (Vibrio fischeri)

    Arsenic is an abundant metalloid and a dangerous pollutant when in solution under the arsenate or arsenite forms—As(V) and As(III), respectively. Since its biological effects are expected to depend on the oxid...
