Effect of Fluoxetine Hydrochloride on Routine Metabolism of Lambari (Deuterodon iguape, Eigenmann, 1907) and Phantom Shrimp (Palaemon pandaliformis, Stimpson, 1871)
Abstract:Fluoxetine is an emerging pollutant that acts as a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) and being a hydrolytic molecule that is photolytically stable and accumulaties in biological tissues, its disposal in the aquatic environment can interfere with the physiology of fish and shrimp. Thus, the objective of this study was to analyze the effects of fluoxetine on routine metabolism (metabolic rate, specific ammonia excretion and O:N ratio) of Deuterodon iguape and Palaemon pandaliformis. For this, five gr… Show more
“…The LC 50 value reported for fluoxetine concerning Pseudokirchneriella subcapitata (microalgae) was 24 μg/L (Brooks et al, 2003). A recent study by Rezende et al (2021) showed LC 50 values of fluoxetine after 24, 48, 72 and 96 h of 40, 36, 28 and 26 μg/L, respectively, for Palaemon pandaliformis (phantom shrimp). This shows that other organisms are clearly more sensitive to fluoxetine than D. magna.…”
