多种聚氧乙烯牛脂胺混合物MON 0818的水生环境危害评估：脉冲暴露后沉积物、温度和恢复能力的影响

我们对一种商业表面活性剂混合物(多种聚氧乙烯牛脂胺)MON 0818进行了一系列毒性测试：1. 测定底栖无脊椎动物和鱼类在沉积物存在的情况下受到的毒性；2.测定大型蚤(Daphnia magna)和4种初级生产者经过24 h的脉冲暴露之后的恢复能力；3.鉴定水体温度上升对于2种冷水鱼类所受到MON 0818毒性的潜在影响。在沉积物存在的情况下，5种生物中有3种在最高10 mg/L的浓度下短期(24 h)死亡率为零。其余2种物种的中位有效浓度则显著高于仅对水体进行测试的结果。15 ℃下北极红点鲑(Salvelinus alpinus)的半数有效浓度统计上低于10 ℃下。绿藻(Rhabdocelis subcapitata)和普通小球藻(Chlorella vulgaris)在经过24 h 1 mg/L的暴露后的恢复期中显示出生长延迟的状况，表明该暴露可能存在潜在影响。尽管如此，2个物种的最大绝对生长速率并未改变，表明其均可恢复。1.5 mg/L下的蝾螈共生藻(Oophila sp.)和100 mg/L下的浮萍(Lemna minor)经过24 h的暴露并未显示显著反应。24 h 5 mg/L暴露之后的恢复期中，大型蚤显示出潜在的死亡率。然而存活个体的生殖终端指标并未受到影响。结果表明在沉积物的存在下MON 0818的快速损耗可以减轻对于被暴露生物的效果，在不小于环境中可能出现的MON 0818浓度情况下，24 h暴露以后的生物的完全恢复是可能的。

Aquatic Hazard Assessment of MON 0818, a Commercial Mixture of Alkylamine Ethoxylates Commonly Used in Glyphosate-Containing Herbicide Formulations. Part 2: Roles of Sediment, Temperature, and Capacity for Recovery Following a Pulsed Exposure

A series of toxicity tests with MON 0818, a commercial surfactant mixture of polyoxyethylene tallow amines, were performed: 1) in the presence of sediment for benthic invertebrates and fish: 2) to examine the recovery capacity of?Daphnia magna?and 4 primary producers after a pulsed (24-h) exposure; and 3) to examine the potential effect of increased water temperature on toxicity of MON 0818 to 2 cold-water fishes. In the presence of sediment, no acute (24-h) mortality was observed for 3 of the 5 species up to 10?mg/L. The median effective concentrations for the other 2 species were significantly greater than for water only tests. The EC₅₀ at 15?°C for?Salvelinus alpinus?was statistically lower than that at 10?°C. Latent effects of a 24-h exposure (1?mg/L) were observed for?Rhabdocelis subcapitata?and?Chlorella vulgaris, as indicated by delayed growth during recovery phase; however, both cultures were able to recover, as indicated by a lack of changes in maximum absolute growth rates. No significant effects of a 24-h exposure to MON 0818 were observed for?Oophila?sp. (1.5?mg/L) or?Lemna minor?(100?mg/L). Latent mortality after a 24-h exposure to 5?mg/L?was observed during the recovery phase for?D. magna; however, reproduction endpoints on surviving individuals were not altered. The results indicate that quick dissipation of MON 0818 in the presence of sediment can reduce the effects on exposed organisms, and that full recovery from 24-h exposures to concentrations of MON 0818 equal to, or greater than, those expected in the environment is possible.
