Abstract

Chlorophenols which are released into natural waters from various industrial processes and from agricultural uses have been recognized as a group of chemical substances potentially hazardous to the aquatic environment. Therefore it is important to estimate their toxic impact on biota. Thus, the scope of this research was to obtain acute toxicity data for seventeen chlorophenols towards Daphnia magna and to explore the possibilities of deriving QSAR's (quantitative structure-activity relationship) from the above values.

Comparative solubility and acute toxicity to Daphnia magna of coal liquids, shale oil and petroleum

Conference Gray, R; Dauble, D; Scott, A; ...

Evaluating toxicity of complex organic mixtures to aquatic biota involves generating and characterizing water-soluble fractions (WSF) of test materials. Depending on the mixture, WSFs may contain several biologically active compound classes including phenolics, aromatic and saturate hydrocarbons, aromatic amines, sulfur heterocycles and others. Although some components (e.g. phenolics) may predominate, each contributes to overall toxicity. We studied the relationships among solubility, chemical composition and acute toxicity of several fossil-derived materials. These included coal liquids with different boiling ranges, coal liquids produced by different technological processes and under different process conditions, coal liquids derived from different source coals, a shale oilmore »« less
Acute aquatic toxicity of nine alcohol ethoxylate surfactants to fathead minnow and Daphnia magna

Conference Wong, D; Dorn, P; Chai, E

The aquatic toxicity of nine commercial-grade alcohol ethoxylate surfactants was studied in acute exposures to fathead minnow (Pimephales promelas) and Daphnia magna. All studies were conducted in accordance with USEPA TSCA Good Laboratory Practice Standards. Mean measured surfactant concentrations in exposure solutions showed good agreement with nominal concentrations for both fathead minnow and daphnid tests. Surfactant recoveries ranged from 59 to 97% and 67 to 106% in the fathead minnow and daphnid solutions, respectively. The response of both species to the surfactants was generally similar with the daphnids being slightly more sensitive to a few surfactants. Surfactant toxicity tended tomore »« less
Toxicity of aryl- and benzylhalides to Daphnia magna and classification of their mode of action based on quantitative structure-activity relationship

Journal Article Marchini, S; Passerini, L; Hoglund, M; ... - Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry

The acute toxicity of aryl- and benzylhalides to Daphnia magna was investigated to test the validity of existing classification schemes for chemicals by mode of action, mainly based on fish studies, and the applicability of predictive quantitative structure-activity relationship (QSAR) models. Halobenzenes and halotoluenes are generally agreed to be unambiguous baseline toxicants (class 1) with the major exception of the benzylic structures, which are reactive in fish tests (class 3). Eighty-nine percent of the arylhalides tested in this study match a log P{sub ow}-dependent QSAR, including fluorinated, chlorinated, brominated, and iodinated derivatives, thereby confirming the validity of the baseline modelsmore »« less

Correlation between heavy metal acute toxicity values in Daphnia magna and fish

Journal Article Khangarot, B; Ray, P - Bull. Environ. Contam. Toxicol.; (United States)

In the toxicant bioassays, invertebrates with special reference to aquatic arthropod species have been of recent interest as test models due to the need for developing nonmammalian tests system. The cladoceran Daphnia magna bioassays have several practical advantages. D. magna has been used as a useful test species and its sensitivity to environmental pollutants have been recognized as a general representative of other freshwater zooplankton species. The objectives of this study were to determine the acute toxicity of various heavy metals to Daphnia magna for 48 h of exposure and to compare these values with the existing LC50 values formore »« less

Acute toxicity of furazolidone on Artemia salina, Daphnia magna, and Culex pipiens molestus larvae

Journal Article Macri, A; Stazi, A; Dojmi di Delupis, G - Ecotoxicol. Environ. Saf.; (United States)

As a result of evidence of the ecotoxicity of nitrofurans, the acute toxicity of furazolidone was tested in vivo on two aquatic organisms, Artemia salina and Daphnia magna, which are both crustaceans. Toxicity studies were also performed on larvae of Culex pipiens molestus. Results indicated a significant toxicity of the compound on Culex pipiens and Daphnia magna, while Artemia salina proved to be the least sensitive.
