Acute toxicity and toxicokinetics of 4‐heptylphenol in juvenile atlantic cod ( Gadus morhua L.)
Abstract Heptylphenol has been detected in produced water from various oil production platforms in the Norwegian sector of the North Sea and may be of environmental concern due to hydrophobic properties and slow biodegradation in the marine environment. The n ‐octanol/water partition coefficient of...
