Use of {sup 65} Zn as radioactive tracer in the bioaccumulation study of zinc by aquatic organisms; Utilizacao do {sup 65} Zn como elemento tracador no estudo da bioacumulacao do zinco por organismos aquaticos

Abstract

The present work has as main objective to emphasize the importance of using radioactive tracers as well as to establish a methodology for the utilization of {sup 65} Zn in the bioaccumulation study of zinc by Poecilia reticulata. The exposure time varied from 5 days (short term experiments) to 30 days (long term experiments). The bioaccumulation of zinc from the water as well as the elimination of the metal previously absorbed were determined by measuring the activity of {sup 65} Zn which was added to the water in the beginning of the experiments. The technique chosen is suitable to study the behaviour of the stable zinc since the radionuclide used is an isotope of the same element and therefore presents the same chemical properties. (author).
