due to the occurrence of high mortalities between 18 and 42 hrs exposure of embryos to 50.3 ugL-1 bioavailable Cu. To first investigate the underlying structure of the data, Hierarchical Cluster Analysis (HCA) was performed as an unsupervised classification method to identify inherent sample groupings. Euclidean distance and Ward’s criterion were selected as the measure of distance and aggregation, respectively. Heatmap analysis combined with HCA of all metabolite features identified in the…
