The Effect of Seasonality and Body Size on the Sensitivity of Marine Amphipods to Toxicants

Abstract: Two factors, seasonality and body size, were studied to determine their influence on the sensitivity of the amphipods Corophium urdaibaiense and Corophium multisetosum to toxicants. Seasonality was studied by comparing LC50 values for cadmium and ammonia toxicity to both species over a year. Body size effect was studied by comparing LC50 values of ammonia in three size categories of C. urdaibaiense. Except for the case of C. urdaibaiense with ammonia as a toxicant, the sensitivity was maximum during summer and… Show more

“…Menurut Lee et al, (2005), terjadinya perbedaan sensitivitas organisme uji terhadap suatu toksikan disebabkan oleh beberapa faktor seperti perbedaan musim, kesehatan organisme uji, dan kondisi pengujian itu sendiri. McGee et al, (1998) (Perez et al, 2008). Amphipoda akan lebih sensitif terpapar oleh Cd dalam bentuk ion (Cd 2+ ) (King et al, 2006).…”

“…Nauplius, 26: 2018022 inTroduCTion Amphipods have long been recognised as appropriate invertebrate models for ecotoxicological studies (Ingersol et al, 1998;Schulz, 2003;Anderson et al, 2004;Lee et al, 2005;Melo and Nipper, 2007;Hindarti et al, 2016;Artal et al, 2017). They are among the most sensitive benthic organisms to anthropogenic disturbances such as pollution (Anderson et al, 2004), including urban waste (de-la-Ossa-Carretero et al, 2012), metals (Borgman et al, 2005a;Roman et al, 2007;Pérez-Landa et al, 2008) and pesticides (Schulz, 2003). Amphipods bioaccumulate toxic substances that are naturally associated with sediments (Wang et al, 2004;Borgman et al, 2005b).…”

“…Nonetheless, they may tolerate turbidity (Rowe et al, 2002) and low levels of dissolved oxygen (Landman et al, 2005). Amphipods and other aquatic organisms (Grosell et al, 2007) may show variations in their sensitivity depending on their physiological conditions (Artal et al, 2017), growth and reproductive stages (Pérez-Landa et al, 2008) and degree of contact with sediments (de-la- Ossa-Carretero et al, 2012). The freshwater/brackish amphipod Quadrivisio lutzi (Schoemaker, 1933) is found in coastal lagoons in the northern part of Rio de Janeiro state (Weber et al, 2013).…”

“…The organisms used in these tests are selected on the basis of: (i) their sensitivity; (ii) their ecological, commercial or recreational relevance; (iii) their high availability and abundance; (iv) their ease of culture or maintenance in laboratory; (v) and the simplicity of the analysis of results [121][122][123]. Finally, the responses obtained in test species can be qualitative or quantitative, but should be unequivocal, easily observable, describable, measurable, biologically significant and reproducible [124].…”
