The newly developed 1‐h enzymatic inhibition bioassay (Fluotox) was applied to toxicity testing with the larvae of the brine shrimp Artemia. The method consists of visual observation of in vivo inhibition of an enzymatic process using a fluorigenic enzyme substrate. The 1‐h Fluotox test and the conv...
