Data generated from daphnid chronic toxicity tests are used by various regulatory agencies for the development of water quality criteria. Two chemicals which are lacking reported chronic data are aniline and 2,4-dichlorophenol. The acute toxicity of 2,4-dichlorophenol to Daphnia magna has been reported; the toxicity of aniline to D. magna also has been reported. Chronic data for these chemicals are lacking for invertebrates. The objective of this study was to estimate the chronic toxicity of aniline and 2,4-dichlorophenol to Daphnia magna Straus, using a standard 21-day static renewal procedure.
