Using a dynamic energy budget model to investigate the physiological mode of action of lead (Pb) to Lymnaea stagnalis Universiteit Gent
Lymnaea stagnalis is a notably sensitive species for a variety of metals, including lead (Pb). However, the mechanism(s) of lead toxicity to L. stagnalis currently remain incompletely understood. Under dynamic energy budget (DEB) theory, different physiological modes of action (PMoAs) result in the emergence of distinct changes to the life histories of exposed organisms. This work aims to better understand the PMoA of lead toxicity to L. ...
