Acute toxicity of 4-nonylphenol to aquatic invertebrates in Taiwan.
Acute toxicity of 4-nonylphenol (NP) was examined in six freshwater species from three phyla - platyhelminthes, arthropoda and mollusca. Values of the 48-hour LC(50) of NP for six species ranged from 20 to 508 ug/L and values of the 96-hour LC(50) for four species ranged from 120 to 457 ug/L. The most sensitive species tested was a water flea, Ceriodaphnia cornuta, with a 48-hour LC(50) of 20 m...
متن کاملAquatic Invertebrates
Animals are important and conspicuous elements inPacifi c Island ecosystems. They are crucial to the fl ow of energy and nutrients within ecosystems and they strongly infl uence, and in some cases control, the species composition and population structure of communities. Determining which animal species are present in an area and what they do is crucial to understanding how ecosystems function a...
متن کاملToxicity of perfluorooctane sulfonate and perfluorooctanoic acid to plants and aquatic invertebrates.
Acute toxicities of perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS) and perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) were tested on four freshwater species and three plant species. PFOS was more toxic than PFOA for all species tested in this study. Similar time-response patterns of PFOS and PFOA toxicity were observed for each tested species. Values of the 48-h LC(50) of PFOS for all test species ranged from 27 to 233 mg/L ...
متن کاملPHYSIOLOGICAL AND CHEMICAL ECOLOGY Laboratory Toxicity of Three Mosquito Oviposition Repellents to Six Nontarget Aquatic Invertebrates
Toxicity of three mosquito oviposition repellents, N,N-diethyl-3-methylbenzamide (AI3-22542 or deet), AI3-35765, and AI3-37220 to 6 aquatic nontarget invertebrates, was evaluated in the laboratory. The 24-h LC50 values for Cypricercus sp. (Ostracoda), Moina sp. (Cladocera), Eucyclops agilis Koch (Copepoda), Strelkovimermis spiculatus Poinar & Camino (Nematoda), Þrstand fourth-instar Toxorhynchi...
متن کاملPotential for photoenhanced toxicity of spilled oil in Prince William Sound and Gulf of Alaska waters.
Photoenhanced toxicity is the increase in the toxicity of a chemical in the presence of ultraviolet light (UV) compared to a standard laboratory test conducted with fluorescent lighting (minimal UV). Oil products, weathered oil, and specific polycyclic aromatic compounds present in oil are 2 to greater than 1000 times more toxic in the presence of UV. The photoenhanced toxicity of oil to fish a...
