Effects of Glucose Concentrations on Cadmium, Copper, Mercury, and Zinc Toxicity to a Klebsiella sp.
The influence of glucose concentration on Cd, Cu, Hg, and Zn toxicity to a Klebsiella sp. was studied by following the degradation of C-labeled glucose at pH 6.0. Uptake of C into the cells was also determined. The carbon concentrations ranged from 0.01 to 40 mg liter, which are equivalent to soluble C concentrations in natural environments. The toxicity of Cu, Cd, and Zn to a Klebsiella sp. wa...
متن کاملToxicity of Copper and Cadmium to Freshwater Fishes
Two freshwater fishes, Rasbora sumatrana (Cyprinidae) and Poecilia reticulata (guppy) (Poeciliidae) were exposed for a four-day period in the laboratory condition to a range of copper (Cu) and cadmium (Cd) concentrations. Mortality was assessed and median lethal concentrations (LC50) were calculated. LC50 increased with decrease in mean exposure times for both metals. For R. sumatrana, LC50s fo...
متن کاملFactors influencing cadmium accumulation and its toxicity to marine organisms
The toxicity of dissolved cadmium to a variety of marine animals has been found to be related to salinity, with decreased toxicity observed at higher salinities. Recent data from our laboratory have demonstrated that the toxicity of cadmium to estuarine shrimp and larval fish is a function of free cadmium ion concentration, which in turn is controlled by the chloride concentration of the water....
متن کاملCopper uptake kinetics in diverse marine phytoplankton
We measured short-term uptake rates of copper using the gamma-emitting radioisotope 67Cu in seven algal species in natural and artificial seawater. Cellular net uptake of Cu was typically rapid over periods of 2–20 min. Net uptake ceased after about 60 min. The most copper-sensitive species examined, Synechococcus sp., exhibited 2–3 orders of magnitude higher carbon and surface-area–normalized ...
متن کاملToxicity of atmospheric aerosols on marine phytoplankton.
Atmospheric aerosol deposition is an important source of nutrients and trace metals to the open ocean that can enhance ocean productivity and carbon sequestration and thus influence atmospheric carbon dioxide concentrations and climate. Using aerosol samples from different back trajectories in incubation experiments with natural communities, we demonstrate that the response of phytoplankton gro...
