Abstract:
We studied the acute toxicity of Nanhai LH crude oil and NO.0 diesel to
Litopenaeus vannamei,
Perna viridis and
Ruditapes philippinarum. The results show that 96 h-LC
50s of Nanhai crude oil emulsion, NO.0 diesel emulsion and NO.0 diesel dispersants to
L.vannamei were 3.25 mg · L
-1, 3.17 mg · L
-1 and 2.40 mg · L
-1, respectively, and the corresponding safety thresholds were 0.33 mg · L
-1, 0.32 mg · L
-1 and 0.24 mg · L
-1, respectively. The 96 h-LC
50 of Nanhai LH crude oil emulsion and NO.0 diesel emulsion to
R.philippinarum were 15.93 mg · L
-1 and 8.74 mg · L
-1, respectively, and the corresponding security thresholds were 1.59 mg · L
-1 and 0.87 mg · L
-1, respectively. In addition, The 96 h-LC
50 of NO.0 diesel emulsion on
P.viridis was 28.90 mg · L
-1, and the safety threshold was 2.89 mg ·L
-1.
