“…According to the above and considering the studies of toxicity realized by Barbieri et al (2016) with carbofuran and Gil-Díaz (2020) with paraquat in M. olfersii, as well as Marques et al (2021) with chlorpyrifos in M. acanthurus, it is possible to consider that the postlarvae of Macrobrachium can be used as a suitable test organisms to evaluate the toxicity of diuron and other pesticides. Given the relevant role of prawn shrimp in aquatic environments and its use for human consumption, its inclusion in ecotoxicological studies is recommended.…”

Farmers have increased the production of food by using chemical substances such as diuron; however, these components affect the water quality and the species found in these ecosystems. Macrobrachium acanthurus and M. olfersii postlarvae present in the estuary of Río Jamapa, Veracruz were collected to measure the LC50 and LD50 using the herbicide Karmex (diuron: (3-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)-1,1-dimethylurea [DCMU]). The captures of the prawns were made with light traps. Acute toxicity bioassays were carried out at 96 h to determine the mean lethal concentration (LC50). In the experimental design, a geometric series was used considering the control and five concentrations of the herbicide (1.75, 3.5, 6.99, 14, and 28 mg/L). The data analysis was carried out with the Probit method. A maximum LC50 of 10.233 mg/L and LD50 of 8.221 mg/L of Karmex were obtained for M. acanthurus and a maximum LC50 of 9.242 mg/L and LD50 of 7.504 mg/L of Karmex were obtained for M. olfersii. The average lethal concentration was consistent with those of other crustaceans, such as Artemia salina and Daphnia. Based on the response in the bioassays, Macrobrachium acanthurus and M. olfersii postlarvae can be used in toxicology studies.

“…There are several assays to investigate aquatic ecotoxicity, and some are validated and standardized [ 5 , 6 , 7 , 8 , 9 , 10 ]. Swollen duckweed ( Lemna gibba ) has many attributes that make it useful for ecosystem health assessment [ 11 , 12 , 13 ]. The OECD Test Guidelines (TG) 221 are designed to assess the toxicity of substances to freshwater aquatic plants of the genus Lemna (duckweed).…”

Typical in silico models for ecotoxicology focus on a few endpoints, but there is a need to increase the diversity of these models. This study proposes models using the NOEC for the harlequin fly (Chironomus riparius) and EC50 for swollen duckweed (Lemna gibba) for the first time. The data were derived from the EFSA OpenFoodTox database. The models were based on the correlation weights of molecular features used to calculate the 2D descriptor in CORAL software. The Monte Carlo method was used to calculate the correlation weights of the algorithms. The determination coefficients of the best models for the external validation set were 0.74 (NOAEC) and 0.85 (EC50).
