Source: Mulsow SG, PF Landrum. 1995. Bioaccumulation of DDT in a marine polychaete, the conveyor-belt deposit feeder Heteromastus filiformis (Claparede). Chemosphere 31:3141-3152.

Study aim: "To better understand the fate of toxic pollutants within the sediment column and their uptake by the benthic community, the effects of several sub-lethal DDT concentrations were determined on Heteromastus filiformis (a marine head-down deposit feeder) under laboratory conditions."
