Effects of six antibiotics and their binary mixtures on growth of Pseudokirchneriella subcapitata
The effect of ampicillin (AMP), amoxicillin (AMX), cephalotin (CEP), ciprofloxacin (CPF), gentamycin (GEN), and vancomycin (VAN) have been examined individually and as binary mixtures, on a non-target aquatic organism, the green alga Pseudokichneriella subcapitata. The β-lactam antibiotics AMP and A...
