INFLUENCE AND BlOCONCENTRATlON OF PETROLEUM HYDROCARBON ASSOCIATED WITH OIL ON AND BY PLANKTON IN A MESOCOSM EXPERIMENT OF EAST CHINA SEA

A kinetic model was presented to estimate the uptake/release rate constants and thereafter, bioconcentration factor, $k_1$, $k_2$ and BCF (bioconcentration factor), for the uptake of PH by plankton were obtained. Implies that PH(petroleum hydrocarbon) caused no significant influence on the uptake of $N-NO_3$, but significant influence on that of $P-PO_4$. In addition, the application of kinetic model for the bioconcentration of volatile organic toxic compound by organism suggests that the uptake of PH by plankton was an important process for the environmental capacity of PH.
