“…Isenberg, one of the original developers of the photoluminescent bacterial bioassay, describes this as testimony to the unity of life and shows that the median effective concentration (EC50) values for a variety of anesthetic gases are very similar for bacteria, mouse, dog, cat, and human (6). Several (20), Qureshi (21), and Curtis (22). Given the multitude of species, bioassays, and chemical substances, this study emphasizes those species and bioassays where larger numbers of data are in common, perusing the largest available data compilation (4 (50) Devillers et al (38) Devillers et al (38) Xu et al (13) Dutka and Kwan (14) DeZwart and Slooff (19) DeZwart and Slooff (19) Ribo and Kaiser (20) Ribo and Kaiser (55) Xu et al (13), Ribo and Kaiser (55) DeZwart and Slooff (19) given to 30-min EC50 data over 15-min data, and 15-min EC50 over 5-min data, where available.…”

Linear relationships of the median lethal concentrations of several hundreds of chemicals for a variety of organisms with Vibrio fischeri median effective concentrations are investigated. Significant correlations can be developed for many aquatic species including the fishes fathead minnow, bluegill, catfish, goldfish, goldorfe, guppy, killifish, rainbow trout, sheepshead minnow, and zebrafish; the water flea Daphnia sp.; such crustaceans as Artemia sp. and Crangon sp.; the ciliate Tetrahymena pyriformis; and algae, such as Chlorella sp. These interspecies relationships can be used to estimate order-of-magnitude type toxic effects of many substances for these aquatic organisms. Highly significant relationships can be obtained when selecting compounds on a chemical basis, such as alcohols, ketones, aromatics, etc., which allow the calculation of the compounds' toxicities to the corresponding aquatic species with increased accuracy and confidence. Analogous correlations with mammalian (rat and mouse) oral, intraperitoneal, and intravenous median lethal dose (LD50) data are much weaker than those for most aquatic species.However, there are significant differences between these three routes of administration and the intravenous LD50 data show the best relationship with the Vibrio data.

“…However, procedures can be adapted to soils, using leachates extracted with water, in order to assess the impact of soil composition on ground water (Loureiro et al 2005;Alvarenga et al 2008a). Vibrio fischeri bioassays have demonstrated to be sensitive to heavy metals and can detect acute and sublethal effects caused by a large number of chemicals (Ribo and Kaiser, 1983). The tests determine the decrease of the luminescence emitted by the bacteria V. fischeri when exposed to contaminants (Martín et al, 2010).…”

Esta es la versión de autor del artículo publicado en: This is an author produced version of a paper published in: El acceso a la versión del editor puede requerir la suscripción del recurso Access to the published version may require subscription AbstractSeveral amendments were tested on soils obtained from an arsenopyrite mine, further planted with Arrhenatherum elatius and Festuca curvifolia, in order to assess their ability to improve soil's ecotoxicological characteristics. The properties used to assess the effects were: soil enzymatic activities (dehydrogenase, β-glucosidase, acid phosphatase, urease, protease and cellulase), terrestrial bioassays (Eisenia fetida mortality and avoidance behavior), and aquatic bioassays using a soil leachate (Daphnia magna immobilisation and Vibrio fischeri bioluminescence inhibition).The treatment with FeSO4 1% w/w was able to reduce extractable As in soil, but increased the extractable Cu, Mn and Zn concentrations, as a consequence of the decrease in soil pH, in relation to the unamended soil, from 5.0 to 3.4, respectively. As a consequence, this treatment had a detrimental effect in some of the soil enzymatic activities (e.g. dehydrogenase, acid phosphatase, urease and cellulase), did not allow plant growth, induced E. fetida mortality in the highest concentration tested (100% w/w), and its soil leachate was very toxic towards D. magna and V. fischeri. The combined application of FeSO4 1% w/w with other treatments (e.g. CaCO3 1% w/w and paper mill 1% w/w) allowed a decrease in extractable As and metals, and a soil pH 3 value closer to neutrality. As a consequence, dehydrogenase activity, plant growth and some of the bioassays identified those as better soil treatments to this type of multicontaminated soil.
