Peer Review #2 of "Acute toxicity and responses of antioxidant systems to dibutyl phthalate in neonate and adult Daphnia magna (v0.1)"
Abstract:Dibutyl phthalate (DBP) poses a severe threat to aquatic ecosystems, introducing hazards to both aquatic species and human health. The ecotoxic effects of DBP on aquatic organisms have not been fully investigated. This study investigates acute toxicity, oxidative damage, and antioxidant enzyme parameters in neonate and adult Daphnia magna exposed to DBP. The obtained results show comparable DBP toxic responses in neonates and adults. The median lethal concentrations (LC 50) of DBP in neonates exposed for 24 an… Show more
