Acute Toxic Effects of Zinc Oxide Nanoparticle and Zinc Chloride on Daphnia magna (Straus)

Abstract

The acute toxicities of zinc oxide nanoparticle (ZnO NP), zinc chloride (ZnCl₂) and their mixtures of different concentrations (0.75, 1.5, 3, 6 and 12ppm) on Daphnia magna (Straus, 1820) were investigated at 24, 48 and 72 hours by employing the static acute toxicity test. The data obtained were statistically evaluated by probit analysis method (SPSS 21.0v). The highest toxicity was found at 72 hours of the mixture (ZnO NP+ZnCl₂) and the lowest toxicity was found at 24 hours of ZnCl₂. When the overall acute toxicity results were considered, ZnO NP was determined to be more toxic than ZnCl₂ and mixtures were determined to be more toxic than these two pollutants alone. When the results of time-dependent acute toxicity were evaluated, toxicity was found to increase with increasing time for all three experimental groups (ZnO NP, ZnCl₂ and ZnO NP+ZnCl₂).

ÇİNKO OKSİT NANOPARTİKÜLÜ İLE ÇİNKO KLORÜR'ÜN Daphnia magna (Straus) ÜZERİNE AKUT TOKSİK ETKİLERİ

Abstract

Bu çalışmada çinko oksit nanopartikülünün (ZnO NP), çinko klorürün (ZnCl₂) ve karışımlarının, farklı konsantrasyonlarda (0,75, 1,5, 3, 6 ve 12ppm) Daphnia magna (Straus, 1820) üzerine akut toksik etkileri 24., 48. ve 72. saatlerde statik akut toksisite testi kullanılarak araştırılmıştır. Veriler probit analiz metodu kullanılarak istatistiksel olarak değerlendirilmiştir (SPSS 21.0v). En yüksek toksisite karışımın (ZnO NP+ZnCl₂) 72. saatinde, en düşük toksisitenin ise ZnCl₂'nin 24. saatinde olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Akut toksisite sonuçları göz önüne alındığında, D. magna üzerine ZnO NP'nin ZnCl₂'ye göre, karışımlarının ise bu iki kirleticiye göre daha toksik olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Zamana bağlı akut toksisite sonucu değerlendirildiğinde her üç deney grubu (ZnO NP, ZnCl₂ ve ZnO NP+ ZnCl₂) için zaman arttıkça toksisitenin de arttığı belirlenmiştir.
