“…Stimulatory, or hormetic responses to copper at low concentrations have been reported for other cladocerans for reproductive parameters, such as brood size (Winner and Farrell, 1976) and population growth rate (Koivisto et al, 1992;Roux et al, 1993). Hormetic responses have also been reported for nonessential metals such as cadmium (Bodar et al, 1988;Roux et al, 1993), which suggests that a contaminantmediated increase in feeding may not be a stimulatory e!ect, but rather the result of the need for increased energy to ameliorate metabolic damage. In the present study, the increase in M. macleayi feeding did not translate to increased reproduction, suggesting that the increase in consumption may have been required to meet the demand for higher maintenance costs.…”

“…Reproducible dose-response curves were obtained and the LC50 determined was 252.3 µg L -1 . Previous studies have reported the toxicity of Cd to D. magna under different medium and culturing conditions than those mentioned in the current publication (Bodar et al 1988, Ferreira et al 2008, Qu et al 2013). These studies showed a decrease in survival of D. magna at concentrations up to 300 µg L -1 in good agreement with the values measured herein.…”

“…Cadmium (Cd) is a heavy metal very toxic to health and environment at both acute and chronic exposure (Attar and Maly 1982, Bodar et al 1988, Giusto et al 2012, Souid et al 2013. It is one of the most common pollutants found in both industrial and urban effluents due to its presence in batteries, pigments paint, pulp and paper production and wastewater treatment plants (Hare 1992, USGS 2013 It is well known that in natural waters, organisms are exposed to a variety of contaminants.…”

Abstract. The aim of this study was to assess the impact of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNT) on the toxicity of cadmium (Cd) using the crustacean Daphnia magna. LC50 of Cd and SWCNT alone and combined were calculated and compared. Sorption of Cd on SWCNT was also quantified in separate batch experiments. Results showed that the maximum adsorption of Cd onto SWCNT calculated by the Langmuir equation was 24.4 mg kg-1. LC50s for Cd and SWCNT alone were 252.3 µg L -1 and 1400 µg L -1 , respectively. In the presence of 500 and 1000 µg L -1 of SWCNT, Cd LC50s were 127.2 and 120.1 µg L -1 respectively. Therefore, Cd toxicity increased when organisms were exposed to both contaminants which indicated that SWCNT induces a synergistic toxic effect on the survival of D. magna. It appears that even if SWCNT had a low adsorption capacity for Cd, toxicity of the metal can be increased. Our study shows the complexity of SWCNT toxicity and how the understanding of their interactions with other contaminants is crucial to determine the consequences of their release into the environment.

“…Therefore, the significant alterations in feeding rate resulting from exposure to contamination could partially be explained by a possible alteration in the concentrations of digestive enzymes or changes in the rate of utilization of reserves. Some other studies suggest that exposure to a contamination can increase the feeding rate, but this response may be due not to a stimulatory effect but rather to the result of the need for increased energy to cope with metabolic damage [84]. Some authors have indicated that feeding rate is a sensitive endpoint that allows rapid assessments and is physiologically and ecologically relevant [85,86].…”

Abstract-The purpose of the present study is to provide information on the current state of knowledge regarding the effects of pesticides and antibiotics used in aquaculture on penaeid shrimp, one of the most common aquatic products for human consumption, with a special emphasis on the use of behavioral, physiological, and biochemical response. These include behavior; feeding rate changes; respiration rate, oxygen consumption, and osmoregulation alterations; nucleic acids, protein, and glycogen synthesis; cholinesterase activity inhibition; ATPase activity; and oxidative stress responses. This paper also deals with residues of antibiotics and pesticides in penaeid shrimp. Antibiotics and pesticides used in aquaculture may have adverse effects on treated animals and human consumers health if they are not correctly used. As a complement to the measurement of antibiotic and pesticide residues in tissues, the use of behavioral and biomarker responses can provide more relevant biological information on the potential adverse effects of antibiotics and pesticides on penaeid shrimp health.
