1. Toluene pre-treatment exposures did not affect survival of kelp shrimp or pink salmon fry in subsequent bioassays.
2. Naphthalene pre-treatment exposures to kelp shrimp caused increased sensitivity in subsequent bioassays.
3. Naphthalene pre-treatment exposures to pink salmon caused increase in tolerance in subsequent bioassays. Tolerance increase was proportional to concentration and duration of pre-treatment exposures, and decreased with periods of depuration.
