abstract

piscicidal and molluscicidal activities of aqueous extracts of many members of the family euphorbiaceae are well-known, but the toxicity potential of euphorbia turcomanica was not yet studied on any aquatic animals. an acute toxicity test was performed by using a four-day static renewal test to determine the lc 50 value of dried powder of e. turcomanica for the euryhaline fish, aphanius dispar . the lc 50 values at various exposure periods are 0.177±0.039 g/l for 24 hrs, 0.131±0.030 g/l for 48 hrs, 0.073±0.018 g/l for 72 hrs, and 0.052±0.013 g/l for 96 hrs. the toxicity of dried powder of e. turcomanica exhibits a positive correlation between fish mortality and exposure periods. as this is the first report about toxicity of e. turcomanica on a. dispar , the results could be only compared to that of other euphorbiaceae as well as other fishes. it is concluded that the toxicity potential of e. turcomanica is comparable and close to that of well-documented euphorbiaceae. it has been suggested that e. turcomanica products cannot be used directly in fish-inhabiting water reservoirs.

Effect of lethal concentration of Nano Silver in Aphanius dispar

Rising trend of production and use of nanoparticles can lead to the possibility of their release into aquatic environments. Therefore, knowing toxic effects of these materials on aquatic organisms is of great importance. The objective of this research was to study the acute toxicity of colloidal silver nanoparticles (CAgNPs) through determining the lethal concentrations in the euryhaline teleos...

Factors affecting growth of killifish, Aphanius dispar, a potential biological control of mosquitoes

Preliminary experiments were carried out on the growth of killifish, Aphanius dispar. The motivation of the study was to obtain information for growing the fish on a commercial scale for their use as biological control agents of mosquito larvae. Growth of fry in the laboratory was found to be exponential, where the degree of variance in size among the fry increased with age. Grading the fry was...

Drinking rate and oxygen consumption in the euryhaline teleost Aphanius dispar in waters of high salinity.

When euryhaline teleosts are adapted to waters of salinities higher than the osmolality of plasma an increase in drinking rate has been observed (Lotan, 1969; Maetz, 1970; Maetz & Skadhauge, 1968; Potts et al. 1967; Shehadeh & Gordon, 1969). This is to be expected since drinking, and absorption of salt (NaCl) and water through the intestinal wall, is the only way for the fish to get water to ma...
