Phenanthrene Toxicity to Americamysis bahia and 5 deep-sea crustaceans

The toxicity of phenanthrene to mysid shrimp and 5 deep-sea crustacean species from the Gulf of Mexico was assessed using a 48-hour constant exposure equipped with a passive dosing system. Mortality was assessed at specific intervals, and concentrations of the toxicant were measured at the start and end of the exposure to facilitate calculation of an LC50 for use in the target lipid model.

本研究采用配备被动投加系统的48小时持续暴露实验，评估了菲（phenanthrene）对糠虾及采自墨西哥湾的5种深海甲壳类物种的毒性。实验按特定时间间隔统计受试生物死亡率，并于暴露周期的起始与结束节点测定受试毒物浓度，以辅助计算可应用于目标脂质模型的半数致死浓度（LC50）。
