Sensitivity of the amphipod Tiburonella viscana (Platyischnopidae) to K2CR2O7

Abstract: The sensitivity of Tiburonella viscana to K2Cr2O7 was evaluated from 18 water-only toxicity tests. The mean 48h-LC50 was estimated as 11.217 ± 3.768 mg/l, and the warning limits were calculated (mean LC50 ± 2 SD) as being between 3.68 and 18.75 mg/l. These results are baseline for the species and can be used for future comparisons in toxicity tests.

“…In regard to other crustaceans, Nitokra sp showed more tolerance to potassium dichromate than Tiburonella viscana (Abessa & Sousa, 2003) and the harpacticoid copepod Tisbe biminiensis (Araújo-Castro et al, 2009). The measure of sensitivity between each species to potassium dichromate through the LC 50 rates is expressed in Table 4.…”

“…The grain size distribution expressed as % fines (<63 µm), total organic carbon (TOC) and concentrations of Zn, Cd, Pb, Cu, Ni, Co, V, total PAHs and total PCBs were determined by using the appropriate methods, according to the specialized scientific literature (USEPA 8080, 8310, 1999;APHA, 1999). The whole-sediment toxicity test with the amphipod Tiburonella viscana was conducted following the standard protocol (Abessa and Sousa, 2003;Melo and Abessa, 2002). For the second dataset used in the present work, the sediments were collected at five stations distributed around the SSOS diffusers.…”

“…Specimens of T. viscana were collected at Engenho D'Água beach on Ilhabela Island (southeastern Brazil) at low tide using a manual dredge and transported to the laboratory for an acclimation period (48 h). Acute toxicity testing of T. viscana followed the procedures described by Abessa & Sousa (2003), and the protocol NBR 15638 (ABNT, 2021b). Static exposures were set in glass beakers containing 250 mL of test solution (salinity 35 ppt), and 10 animals were exposed/replicate (four replicates) for 48 h under a controlled photoperiod (12:12-h light:dark) and temperature (25 °C).…”
