[The values for the lowest lead addition ( mg/1) have not been used for this figure as the very low concentration in the medium (< mg/1) could not be determined exactly]. The data for both algae are highly correlated with the lines fitted by the method of least squares. The resulting logarithmic equations can be converted to the following exponential equations: Phacodaci\luin. \ = .rn-S(i; and Platvinonas, v = .r"-7a. PHAEODACTYLUM. 0 FIGURE 5.
