Abstract:Biosurfactant has potential application value in the removal of microalgal blooms, but the ecological risks require more research. In this paper, the effects of surfactin on the toxic dinoflagellate Karlodinium veneficum were studied. The coaction of surfactin and K. veneficum was also evaluated through toxicological experiments on Artemia and juvenile clams. The results showed that: (1) in the concentration range of 0–10 mg/L, surfactin significantly killed algal cells in a dose-dependent manner within 48 h; … Show more
