...tify the process of MeHg bioaccumulation in vivo on the species of rotifers Brachionus plicatilis. We analysed the relationship between the ratio of photoluminescence (PL) intensities (I585/I480) and MeHg concentration (CMeHg) to create a master curve for calculating MeHg concentration based on the measurement of PL intensities. Quantitative results showed that the bioaccumulation of MeHg in the rotifers increased from 1.65 ...
