利用发光菌和大型蚤作为受试生物测定了北方某城市5个再生水原水(城市污水厂二级出水)和2个再生水处理系统的各工艺出水的急性毒性.结果表明,各再生水原水对大型蚤和发光菌具有不同程度的毒性效应,其中工业废水占较大比例的K和B厂再生水原水的大型蚤48 h总抑制率分别高达90%和100%,发光菌发光抑制率分别达到74.2%和46...     

生活污水的臭氧深度处理及其急性毒性

以生活污水处理厂二级生物处理出水为研究对象,利用固相萃取、吸附树脂层析等手段,研究了臭氧氧化过程中进出水及不同分级组分的发光细菌急性毒性的变化,揭示了无机离子浓度对臭氧氧化出水急性毒性的影响,并采用三维荧光光谱对急性毒性相关的物质组分进行了解析。结果表明,在反应时间为15 min,臭氧投加速率为2.1 mg·（L·min）-1,臭氧氧化出水的急性毒性明显下降,出水的急性毒性仅为进水的24.7%。水样不同分级组分的生物毒性测试结果显示,生物处理出水中的亲水性物质和疏水中性物质分别贡献了44.6%和27.8%的毒性当量。当生物处理出水的氯离子含量为75~400 mg·L-1时,经臭氧氧化后,出水的急性生物毒性与氯离子浓度成正相关关系,当生物处理出水的硫酸根离子和硝酸根离子含量分别在150~300 mg·L-1和20~110 mg·L-1变化时,经臭氧氧化后,出水的急性生物毒性变化不大,结合三维荧光光谱的分析结果,臭氧氧化出水中急性毒性物质可能主要存在于芳香族蛋白质类似物（Ⅱ区）和类腐殖酸类物质（Ⅴ区）中。     

城市综合污水处理厂污泥对Daphnia magna 的急性毒性与毒物特征

以城市综合污水处理厂污泥的浸提液对Daphnia magna的24h急性毒性为指标，研究了污泥放置时间与其毒性的关系。结果表明，污泥对Daphnia magna的急性毒性随旋转时间的增加逐渐增大，但在旋转两个月后毒性趋于稳定。对放置3d和84d的污泥，利用TIE（毒性鉴别评价）方法对其浸提液进行了毒物特性鉴别，结果表明，放置3d的污泥，浸提液毒性主要由酸性条件下易挥发的物质引起，放置84d的污泥浸提液中的毒物主要为金属离子和易与酸碱反应的物质。     

pH对污水污泥中污染物浸出的影响

研究pH对污泥中污染物浸出的影响可以为投海过程中海洋水体酸碱性变化对污泥中污染物浸出的影响及其变化规律提供理论依据。为了得出不同pH值对污泥中污染物浸出的影响,采用CEN/TS 14429：2005浸出实验对上海5个污水处理厂脱水污泥中重金属、溶解性有机碳、溶解性硫化物和主要离子的浸出情况进行了研究,同时分别以超纯水和海水为浸提剂研究在相应pH范围内盐度对上述指标浸出的影响。结果表明,Zn、Cd、Pb和As在酸性和碱性条件下浸出量较高,在中性或接近中性条件下浸出量则最低,且海水中Zn和Cd的浸出量比超纯水中高;Cu在碱性条件下的浸出量明显比酸性条件高;在所研究的pH范围内,5个污泥样品中溶解性有机碳的浸出量均随pH的升高而增高;仅酸挥发性硫含量最高的S5在海水中有较明显的溶解性硫化物浸出;部分污泥样品中的氮在酸性纯水中有较高的浸出量,海水中浸出量较少;而无论海水或纯水中,磷在强酸和强碱条件下均有明显浸出。     

基于响应曲面法的环境因素对生活污水三维荧光光谱的影响

采用响应曲面法（RSM）研究温度（10~35℃）、pH（3~11）、稀释倍数（1~10）及交互作用对生活污水溶解性有机物（DOM）三维荧光光谱特性的影响规律。研究表明：生活污水DOM主要含有类色氨酸蛋白质、类酪氨酸蛋白质和类富里酸荧光峰;响应曲面分析表明,温度、pH、稀释倍数其交互作用对于类色氨酸蛋白质荧光强度的影响强弱顺序为：稀释倍数 > pH > 温度、pH-稀释倍数 > 温度-pH > 温度-稀释倍数,其中温度-pH和温度-稀释倍数对其荧光强度的影响为拮抗作用,pH-稀释倍数为协同作用;对于类酪氨酸蛋白质,单因素影响顺序为：pH > 稀释倍数 > 温度,其他情况与类色氨酸蛋白质相似;对于类富里酸,温度、pH、稀释倍数及其交互作用对其影响规律与对类色氨酸蛋白质的相似,但交互作用类型与类色氨酸蛋白质情况相反。     

不同粒径土壤对氯丹的吸附性能及其急性毒性

以典型有机氯农药氯丹为研究对象,重点研究了不同粒径土壤颗粒对氯丹的吸附特性及其对发光菌急性毒性的影响。研究结果表明,不同粒径的土壤颗粒对氯丹的吸附性能依次为：粘粒（ 粗砂（200~2 000 μm）> 细砂（20~200 μm）。Freundlich等温吸附模型的线性相关系数最小为0.84,对不同粒径土壤吸附数据的拟合均优于Langmuir等温吸附模型。对吸附氯丹的吸附数据更符合准一级吸附动力学,其线性相关系数最高达到0.999。四种土壤颗粒浸出液对发光菌毒性的发光抑制率依次为细砂（-21%）≈粗砂（-21%）> 粘粒（-13%）> 粉粒（-9%）,即发光菌的急性毒性与土壤颗粒的吸附性能负相关。     

大型蚤标志酶用于城市二级出水毒性的评价

大型蚤是一种国际公认的标准实验生物,广泛应用于污水、地表水等水质毒性检测。毒性水平较低的城市二级出水,对大型蚤往往无急性毒性效应,而具有慢性毒性效应,但慢性毒性检测周期过长,因此探索一种更灵敏的指标,实现快速检测,对于控制二级出水的水质风险具有重要意义。本研究考察了大型蚤在短期暴露于城市二级出水条件下,其体内乙酰胆碱酯酶、超氧化物歧化酶、过氧化氢酶、ATP酶、羧酸酯酶和碱性磷酸酯酶的酶活变化特征,从中筛选出对二级出水毒性响应灵敏的标志酶指标。实验结果表明,碱性磷酸酯酶、过氧化氢酶对二级出水毒性响应相对较灵敏,具有成为标志酶的潜力,研究结果为城市二级出水生物毒性评价方法优化提供新的思路。     

铜、镉对水螅的急性和联合毒性作用

试验研究重金属铜(Cu2 )、镉(Cd2 )对水螅的急性毒性和联合毒性作用,探索水螅(Hydra sp.)对Cu2 、Cd2 以及两者混合的毒性效应,为水产动物病害的防治中合理使用消毒、杀虫剂以及水体污染评价提供一些参考信息.结果表明,Cu2 对水螅的24 h半致死浓度(LC50)、48 hLC50、72 hLC50、96 hLC50分别为0.072、0.054、0.042、0.037 mg/L;Cd2 对水螅的24 hLC50、48hLC50、72 hLC50、96 hLC50分别为0.001 70、0.000 63、0.000 36、0.000 36 mg/L;Cu2 、Cd2 对水螅的安全浓度分别为3.7×10-4、3.6×10-6mg/L.水螅对两种重金属的毒性反应既快速又敏感,其中Cu2 对水螅的毒性较Cd2 快,但Cd2 的毒性比Cu2 的强.等毒性配比的两种重金属混合液对水螅的毒性大于单一毒性,为协同作用.两种重金属对水螅的LC50随试验时间的延长而减小,它们对水螅的安全浓度远低于渔业水质标准.     

苯酚及其氯代物对大型[氵蚤]的毒性效应和微观机理探讨

采用静态生物急性试验的方法，研究了5种酚类化合物对大型[氵蚤]的急性毒性效应，并利用正辛醇／水分配系数（Kow）对实验测得的毒性数值进行了统计分析，得到了有效的毒性估测模型。研究结果表明，大型[氵蚤]的幼溪接触不同化合物的不同浓度，活动会受到抑制，甚至死亡，苯酚、4-氯酚、2，4-二氯酚、2，3，4-三氯酚和五氯酚的48hEC50分别为9．15、4．64、4．40、1．92、0．37mg／L；根据化学物质对[氵蚤]类的毒性评价标准，这5种化合物都属高毒物质，其中五氯酚具有极高毒性。另外，五氯酚对大型[氵蚤]的致毒关键步骤不仅包括传输分配过程还有生化反应。     

复合式膜生物反应器对船舶生活污水中有机物的降解

研究了复合式膜生物反应器(HMBR)中生化反应及膜自身对船舶生活污水中浓度较高的有机物的去除作用。当进水COD浓度为1 000 mg/L左右,反应器容积负荷为2.4 kg COD/(m3·d)时,HMBR曝气池内生化反应对COD的去除率平均可达91.63%,膜本身去除率平均为5.09%。可见,曝气池内生化反应对有机物的去除起到了主要作用,而膜则维持了系统出水水质的稳定。对曝气池内有机物降解动力学模型进行了研究,曝气池内有机物降解遵循一级反应,其相应动力学参数为vmax=2.79 d-1,Ks=395 mg/L,所得动力学方程可用于指导船用膜生物反应器的设计及运行维护。     

Comparative toxicity of rac- and S-tebuconazole to Daphnia magna

Tebuconazole is a chiral triazole fungicide used as raceme in a variety of agricultural applications. Earlier studies showed that tebuconazole is toxic to many non-target aquatic organisms but relative data for tebuconazole enantiomers are lacking. Thus, goal of this study was to evaluate and compare the toxicity of rac- and S-tebuconazole with Daphnia magna at both acute and chronic levels according to Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) guidelines 202 and 211 respectively, to provide some guidelines for optimizing chiral pesticides application and management. The exposure concentrations were 0.1, 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 8, 10 mg L^?1 for both rac- and S-tebuconazole and their 48-h EC₅₀ values to D. magna were 3.53 (3.32–3.78) and 2.74 (2.33–3.10) mg L^?1 respectively, indicating that these both are medium toxic to D. magna with no significant toxicity difference at acute level. In chronic test, <24-h old D. magna were exposed to 0.01, 0.05, 0.10, 0.20, and 0.40 mg L^?1 of rac- and S-tebuconazole with one blank and one solvent control for 21 days according to OECD guideline 211. Four developmental (molting rate, days to the 1st and 3rd brood, and body length) and five reproductive (size of the 1st and 3rd brood, number of broods, and number of neonates) parameters for each D. magna were determined. Results showed that both rac- and S-tebuconazole significantly reduced the reproduction and impacted the development of D. magna at concentrations of 0.05 mg L^?1 or higher. Furthermore, S-tebuconazole was more toxic than raceme, and the difference between effects on the same parameters induced by rac- and S-tebuconazole was statistically significant. These results demonstrated that the chronic toxicity of S-tebuconazole might be underestimated in general use, and further studies should focus more on the biological behaviors of enantiomers and not just the raceme of tebuconazole and other chiral pesticides in the environment.     

Acute and chronic toxicity of organophosphate monocrotophos to Daphnia magna

The acute and chronic toxicity of monocrotophos (MCP), the binary joint toxicity of MCP and bifenthrin (BF), and sodium dodecyl benzene sulfonate (SDBS) to Daphnia magna (D. magna) was evaluated. The 24 h-median effective concentration (24 h-EC₅₀) and 48 h-median lethal concentration (48 h-LC₅₀) of MCP towards D. magna were 161 and 388 μ g/L, respectively. In addition, the lowest-observed effective concentration (LOEC) and non-observed effective concentration (NOEC) of MCP to D. magna were 10 and 5 μ g/L, respectively. Furthermore, the chronic value (ChV) of MCP against D. magna was 7 μ g/L and the acute chronic ratio (ACR) was 55. The number of offspring per female and the intrinsic rate of natural increase (r) were identified as the parameters that were most sensitive to MCP. In addition, toxic unit (TU) analysis was employed to evaluate the joint toxicities. The calculated TU_mix values of binary equitoxic mixtures of MCP + BF and MCP + SDBS were 1.47 and 1.63, respectively, which suggests that both equitoxic mixtures exert a limited antagonistic effect. The results of this study revealed that the toxic threshold of MCP towards D. magna is higher than its reported highest residue (4 μ g/L) in the ordinary aquatic environment, and that concurrent exposure to BF or SDBS may exert a slight antagonistic effect.     

Aquatic toxicity of cartap and cypermethrin to different life stages of Daphnia magna and Oryzias latipes

Cartap and cypermethrin, which are among the most widely used pesticides in many countries, are considered safe because of their low mammalian toxicity and their low persistence in the environment. However, recent findings of endocrine-disrupting effects and developmental neurotoxicity have raised concerns about the potential ecological impacts of these pesticides. We evaluated the aquatic toxicity of cartap [S,S′-(2-dimethylaminotrimethylene) bis(thiocarbamate), unspecified hydrochloride] and cypermethrin [(RS)-alpha-cyano-3-phenoxybenzyl-(1RS,3RS,1RS,3SR)-3-(2,2-dichlorovinyl)-2,2-dimethylcyclopropane carboxylate], both individually and combined, on different life stages of the freshwater cladoceran Daphnia magna and a freshwater teleost, Japanese medaka (Oryzias latipes). The 96-hr Daphnia median effective concentrations (EC50s) for cartap and cypermethrin were 91.0 μ g/L and 0.00061 μ g/L, respectively. Rapid recovery of Daphnia was observed after short-term pulsed exposure to cartap and cypermethrin; there were no adverse effects on reproduction or survival 20 d after a 24 hr exposure to cartap up to 1240 μ g/L and cypermethrin up to 1.9 μ g/L. Chronic continuous exposure (for 21 d) of 7-d-old Daphnia to cypermethrin significantly reduced the intrinsic population growth rate in a concentration-dependent manner. However, because the intrinsic population growth rates were all above zero, populations did not decrease even at the highest experimental concentration of 200 ng/L. Exposure of Daphnia neonates (< 24 hr old) to cypermethrin for 21 d caused significant, sub-lethal reproduction-related problems, such as increased time to first brood, reduced brood size, and reduced total brood number, at 0.0002, 0.002, and 0.2 ng/L cypermethrin, but the intrinsic population growth rate was not significantly affected. Oryzias latipes was relatively more resistant to both pesticides. In particular, embryos appeared to be more resistant than juveniles or adults, which may be partly due to the protective role of the chorion. The incidence of larval fish deformity was significantly higher after a 96 hr exposure to as low as 250 μ g/L of cartap or 40 μ g/L of cypermethrin. The mixture of both compounds showed no synergistic toxicity. The extremely high acute-to-chronic ratio suggests that the standard acute lethal toxicity assessment might not reflect the true environmental hazards of these frequently used pesticides. Ecological hazard assessments of long-term low dose or pulsed exposures to cartap and cypermethrin may reveal more realistic consequences of these compounds in surface water.     

Effects of lindane on Daphnia magna during chronic exposure

Abstract

Acute and chronic toxicity tests with lindane were conducted on Daphnia magna. The 24‐hr static LC50 was 1.64 mgL^‐1. The sublethal effects of 0.16, 0.25, 0.32, 0.60 and 0.80 mgL^‐1 lindane on the survival, reproduction and growth of D. magna were monitored for 21 days. The algae Nannochloris oculata (5 × 10⁵ cellsmL^‐1) was used to feed the daphnids. The parameters used to determined the effect of the pesticide on D. magna were:mean total young per female, mean brood size, days to first brood, intrinsic rate of natural increase (r), growth, and survival. Reproduction as well as survival was significantly reduced at lindane concentrations of 0.25 mgL^‐1 and higher. The intrinsic rate of natural increase (r) decreased with increasing concentrations of lindane. Growth, as measured by body length, was depressed significantly at 0.25 mgL^‐1 lindane and higher. The chronic data was used to formulate an acute/chronic ratio.

A biology-based dynamic approach for the reconciliation of acute and chronic toxicity tests: application to Daphnia magna

There is the need to integrate existing toxicity data in a coherent framework for extending their domain of applicability as well as their extrapolation potential. This integration would also reduce time and cost-consuming aspects of these tests and reduce animal usage. In this work, based on data extracted from literature, we have assessed the advantages that a dynamic biology-toxicant fate coupled model for Daphnia magna could provide when assessing toxicity data, in particular, the possibility to obtain from short-term (acute) toxicity test long-term (chronic) toxicity values taking into account the inherent variability of D. magna populations and the multiple sources of data. The results show that this approach overcomes some of the limitations of existing toxicity tests and that the prediction errors are considerably reduced when compared with the factor from 2 to 5 obtained using acute-to-chronic ratios.     

Effect of carbaryl (carbamate insecticide) on acetylcholinesterase activity of two strains of Daphnia magna (Crustacea,Cladocera)

The present study was designed to investigate the effect of carbaryl (carbamate insecticide) on the acetylcholinesterase activity in two strains (same clone A) of the crustacean cladoceran Daphnia magna. Four carbaryl concentrations (0.4, 0.9, 1.8 and 3.7 µg L^?1) were compared against control AChE activity. Our results showed that after 48 h of carbaryl exposure, all treatments induced a significant decrease of AChE activities whatever the two considered strains. However, different responses were registered in terms of lowest observed effect concentrations (LOEC: 0.4 µg L^?1 for strain 1 and 0.9 µg L^?1 for strains 2) revealing differences in sensitivity among the two tested strains of D. magna. These results suggest that after carbaryl exposure, the AChE activity responses can be also used as a biomarker of susceptibility. Moreover, our results show that strain1 is less sensitive than strain 2 in terms of IC50-48 h of AChE activity. Comparing the EC50-48 h of standard ecotoxicity test and IC50-48 h of AChE inhibition, there is the same order of sensitivity with both strains.     

堆肥污泥施入黄土对植物生长及Cd吸收的影响

以堆肥污泥为研究对象,采用盆栽实验方法研究不同干质量(0%、1%、5%、10%、25%和50%)堆肥污泥施入贫瘠黄土后,对玉米、蚕豆生长情况及对重金属Cd吸收的影响。结果表明,黄土中重金属Cd含量随施用堆肥污泥增加而增加,大部分(70%以上)都积累于混合基质中,玉米和蚕豆中重金属Cd吸收系数约为0.09~0.14;施用堆肥污泥干质量超过25%时,混合基质中重金属Cd超过《土壤环境质量标准》(GB15618-1995)[1]二级(pH >7.5)标准值(0.6 mg/kg),另外,玉米和蚕豆在堆肥污泥施用比例分别为1%和5%时长势最佳,且植物幼苗期平均增重分别为8%和19%,得出,施入5%左右堆肥污泥有利于玉米、蚕豆生长,堆肥污泥短期有控施于贫瘠黄土是可行的。
