Comparison of bioassays using the anostracan crustaceans Artemia salina and Thamnocephalus platyurus for plant extract toxicity screening

Abstract: RESUMO: "Comparação de bioensaios com os crustáceos Artemia salina e Thamnocephalus platyurus para abordagem de extratos de plantas com toxicidade". Três bioensaios de letalidade com o crustáceo de água salgada Artemia salina Leach, Artemiidae, (teste convencional em microplaca de 96 poós Artoxkit microbiotest M) e o crustáceo de água doce Thamnocephalus platyurus Packard, Thamnocephalidae (Thamnotoxkit microbiotest F), foram comparados utilizando extratos de dez espécies de plantas da Guatemala. Foi previamen… Show more

“…O ensaio com o microcrustáceo Artemia salina é sugerido como um método simples que pode ser aplicado na pesquisa de fitoterápicos devido à boa correlação com testes in vivo (Meyer et al, 1982;Mayorga et al, 2010).…”

“…In spite of this fact, several criticisms against their suitability for such purpose have been published (Persoone & Wells, 1987;Nunes et al, 2006). The most important of them is the lower sensitivity of the Artemia species to several chemical or physical agents in comparison to the other invertebrate test organisms (Sorgeloos et al, 1978;Song andBrown, 1998, Okamura et al, 2000;Guerra, 2001;Nalecz-Jawecki et al, 2003;George-Ares, et al, 2003;Mayorga et al, 2010). The second disadvantage is a decreased solubility of some chemical substances in saline or sea medium (e.g.…”

“…The second disadvantage is a decreased solubility of some chemical substances in saline or sea medium (e.g. Mayorga et al, 2010), however, this problem may be overcome by using convenient co-solvents (see bellow).…”

“…Brine Shrimp Lethality Assay (BSLA) has gained recognition as an alternative bioassay technique to screen the toxicity of algae [7], of dental materials [8], toxicity of heavy metals [9] and metal ions [10], toxicity of nanoparticles [11], as well as screening of marine natural products [12], the toxicity plant extracts [13,14,15,16]. It also indicates cytotoxicity of a myriad of pharmacological activities such as antimicrobial, antiviral, pesticidal and anti-tumor of compounds [13,14].…”
