Growth‐inhibiting effects of 12 antibacterial agents and their mixtures on the freshwater microalga Pseudokirchneriella subcapitata

Abstract: The growth-inhibiting and binary joint effects of 12 antibacterial agents on the freshwater green alga Pseudokirchneriella subcapitata (Korschikov) Hindák were investigated over 72-h exposures. The toxicity values (the median inhibitory concentration value, in micromoles) in decreasing order of sensitivity were triclosan (0.0018)>triclocarban (0.054)>roxithromycin (0.056)>clarithromycin (0.062)>tylosin (0.20)>tetracycline (2.25)>chlortetracycline (3.49)>norfloxacin (5.64)>sulfamethoxazole (7.50)>ciprofloxacin … Show more

“…Since algae were found to be very sensitive to triclosan [16,32,33], a freshwater unicellular green alga P. subcapitata was used to test toxicity changes during the oxidation of the compound by Fe(VI). The oxidation experiments were conducted at pH 7.0 at room temperature (23 ± 2 • C).…”

“…Growth inhibition tests of triclosan and its products to P. subcapitata over 72 h followed the procedure described by Yang et al [33]. The EC 50 value of triclosan was calculated by plotting the log concentration of triclosan versus algal cell counts using logistic regression (Eq.…”

“…TCS has been detected in various environmental media such as influents, effluents and biosolids in WWTPs , rivers (Halden and Paull 2005;Lindstrom et al 2002;Sabaliunas et al 2003;Zhao et al 2013), lakes , drinking water (Stackelberg et al 2004) and ocean water (Xie et al 2008). Contamination of aquatic environments with TCS may be harmful to aquatic organisms, such as algae (Yang et al 2008), crustacean (Orvos et al 2002) and fish (Heidler et al 2006).…”

“…Moreover, those biocides present in the aquatic environment can cause adverse effects on aquatic organisms. For example, triclosan has shown toxicity to algae species with a reported 72 h-growth no-observed-effect concentration (NOEC) of 200 ng/L (Yang et al, 2008). Parabens are confirmed to be weak estrogenic compounds (Routledge et al, 1998), and azole fungicides are regarded as potential endocrine disruptors due to their aromatase inhibition (Zarn et al, 2003).…”
