title: Effect of hexachlorobenzene (HCB) on photosynthetic oxygen evolution and respiration of Chlorella pyrenoidosa.
abstract: In experiments with Chlorella pyrenoidosa it was shown that an exposure of these cells to HCB at a dose level of 0.1, 1.0, and 5.0 ppm caused an inhibition of photosynthetic oxygen evolution of 33.3, 42, and 51%, respectively. Respiration, however, was inhibited only slightly, if at all.
