The objective of this study was to examine the impact of aluminium on the perennial macroalgaeCharahispidaL. and its bioaccumulation capacities. Aluminium (Al) was introduced into the environment in the form of polyaluminium chloride, an agent utilized in the restoration of waterbodies. Research was conducted in an experimental setting usingmesocosms (volume 0.8 m3) placed in the littoral zone of a lake withC. hispida.Three doses of the coagulant were applied, each with a different volume: low – 6.1 g Al m−3, medium – 12.2 g m−3and high – 24.5 g Al m−3. A significant acidification of environment was determined, which would imply the presence of toxic Al3+ions. It has been demonstrated that aluminium penetrates and accumulates in the cells of the charophyte. This caused damage to the thalli, which manifested itself in chloroses, necroses, flaking of the cortex cells and softening of the thallus, whose severity was proportionate to the dose of the coagulant. The first negative signs were observed after 24 h. The study shows thatC. hispidais a poor accumulator of aluminium (bioconcentration factor < 200), while bioaccumulation capacity was inhibited at the concentration of approx. 2.0 mg Al g−1d.w. Accumulation in the thalli of the charophytes accounted for 58% of variation following removal of aluminium from the environment. The results of the experiment demonstrate a negative impact of aluminium on charophytes at concentrations used in aggressive restoration of lakes.
