Bioconcentration of diclofenac in present fish study
| Parameter | Low concentration (2.1 µg/L) | High concentration (18.7 µg/L) |
|---|---|---|
| BCFSS | 5 | 3 |
| BCFK | 2 | 2 |
| BCFL | 9 | 5 |
| Depuration half-life DT50 (d) | 1.1 | 0.9 |
BCF = bioconcentration factor; BCFSS = steady state bioconcentration factor (calculated from fish concentrations at steady state plateau); BCFK = kinetic bioconcentration factor (calculated from fitted uptake and depuration rate constants); BCFL = lipid normalized bioconcentration factor (BCFSS normalized to 5% fish lipid content).
