The aim of this study was to improve our understanding of metal bioavailability in soil by linking the biotic ligand approach with toxicokinetics modelling. We determined cadmium bioaccumulation kinetics in Folsomia candida (Collembola) as a function of soil pH. Animals were exposed for 21 days to LUFA 2.2 soil at 5 or 20 mu g Cd g(-1) dry soil followed by 21 days elimination in clean soil. Internal cadmium concentrations were modelled using a first-order one-compartment model, relating uptake rate constants (k(1)) to total soil, water or 0.01 M CaCl2 extractable and porewater concentrations. Based on total soil concentrations, k(1) was independent of soil pH while it strongly increased with increasing pH based on porewater concentrations explaining the reduced competition of H+ ions making cadmium more bioavailable in pore water at high pH. This shows that the principles of biotic ligand modelling are applicable to predict cadmium accumulation kinetics in soil-living invertebrates. (C) 2013 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
