Abstract

The toxicity of phenol to aquatic biota has been studied extensively for a long time. However, most studies have used a constant concentration aqueous exposure of phenol to an invertebrate species. This research was designed to characterize the toxicity effects of pulsed phenol (C6H5OH) exposure to Moina macrocopa. The M macrocopa was exposed to 2.51, 3.98, 6.31, 10.0 mg C6H5OH l-1 at 6 h phenol pulses in this experiment. Our study demonstrated that the increase of pulsed concentration in the exposure of the parent generation (F0) led to the decrease of EC50 and an increase of 21-day mortality of the first generation of offspring (F1). The cumulative reproduction (21-day CR) of F1 was significantly higher than this of F0 when they experienced the same pulse.
