본 연구에서는 국내 토착종인 왜물개 (Aphyocypris chinensis)을 사용하여 4가지 농약(diazinon, iprodione, fenpropathrin, myclobutanil)의 급성독성을 평가하기 위하여 지수식으로 독성실험을 실시하여 96-hr $LC_{50}$ 값과 95% 신뢰한계를 구하였다. 각 실험농약의 96-hr $LC_{50}$ 값을 비교하여 왜몰개에 대한 급성독성이 높은 순서를 정리한 결과는 Fenproparthrin (0.003 mg $L^{-1}$)>Myclobutanil (9.1 mg $L^{-1}$)>Diazinon (14.1 mg $L^{-1}$)>Iprodione (31.8 mg $L^{-1}$) 순으로 나타났다. 본 연구에서 사용된 4가지 농약에 대한 왜물개의 급성독성 값은 현재까지 보고된 다른 어종의 급성독성 값과 차이가 있었다. 그러므로 환경관리 및 규제목적으로 어류에 대한 급성독성실험 결과를 수질기준 또는 물질분류에 이용하기 위해서는 다양한 어류에 대한 급성독성 평가를 통하여 종합적 판단이 필요하다고 사료된다.

Cadmium, a major aquatic pollutant in many parts of the world, is toxic and readily accumulated in aquatic organisms. It mainly exists in water as complexes with organic ligands such as dissolved organic carbon and this complexation is known to have effects on the aquatic toxicities. In this study, acute toxicity, histology, and bioaccumulation were studied to evaluate effects of humic acid on cadmium toxicity and bioavailability to fish using Oryzias lalipes and Cyprinus carpio. 96h-LC$_{50}$ of cadmium was 6.38mg/L using Oryzias latipes. However, the mortality showed the dose-dependent decrease when humic acid was added to the test solution. When fish were exposed to 5 mg/L of cadmium, histological changes in the exposed organs (caudal fins, gills, kidney, liver, and gut) of C~lprinus carpio were decreased by humic acid, especially in kidney and liver. Bioaccumulation of cadmium also decreased by treatment of humic acid. It seems that the formation of complexes between cadmium and humic acid may decrease bioavailability of cadmium to fish, and thus reduce the toxic effects of cadmium.

Endocrine disrupting effects of four pharmaceutical products were evaluated with fish. The test pharmaceuticals, i.e., sulfamethoxazole, sulfamethazine, oxytetracycline and tetracycline have been often detected in aquatic environment, but their ecological hazard on receptors of various trophic levels has seldom been evaluated. In the present study, we conducted acute toxicity assays with a fish, Japanese medake (Oryziα lαtipes). The vitellogenin induced in female fish normally, but a endocrine disrupting chemical could give effects even male fish. We have tried 4 pharmaceutic chemicals to find out the endocrine disrupting effects. Sulfamethoxazole 1, 0.5 ppm induced vitellogenin even at male Japanese medaka. Sulfamethazine 10, 5, 1 ppm could induced vitellogenin at male fish. Oxytetracycline 10, 5, 1ppm could induced vitellogenin With the fish. Tetracycline 10, 5 ppm could induced vitellogenin at male fish. Some pharmaceuticals such as sulfamethoxazole, sulfamethazine, oxytetracycline and tetracycline could give effects to male Oryzias latipes. They could induced vitellogenin under exposure range 0.5 ${\sim}$ 10 ppm of chemicals at male Oryzias latipes.

Laboratory bioassays were conducted to test the acute toxicity effects of sudden exposure to sodium cyanide (NaCN) on the endogenous rhythm of the oxygen consumption rate (OCR) in the black rockfish Sebastes schlegeli. The OCR of the black rockfish(n = 14, total length = $20.4{\pm}1.16\;cm$, wet weight = $158{\pm}25\;g$) was measured with an automatic intermittent-flow-respirometer. OCR decreased significantly when experimental fish were exposed to NaCN. When exposed to 10 ppb NaCN, fish were able to recover their OCR rhythmic activities. When fish were exposed to 20 ppb, however, the metabolic activity rhythms were not recovered. These results suggest that exposure to NaCN concentrations over 20 ppb cause severe physiological damage to the endogenous rhythms of black rockfish.

The acute and subacute toxicity of fumomsin $B_1$ was evaluted in fingerlings of common carp, Cyprinus carpio. Dipping of fish for acute toxicity was performed for a period of 48 hours, and the $TLm_{48h}$ value(median tolerance limit) was more than 1000 ppm in common carp. Severe damages were observed in various organs and among them, clubbing of gill lamella, lytic degeneration and vacuolation of liver cells, and epithelial edema of renal tubules were relatively prominent. The most significant changes were hyperbasophilic foci of liver cells in subacute toxicity test and these can imply the possibility of hepatocarcinogenecity of fumonisin $B_1$.

평균체중 96 ± 3.6 g (평균전장 43 cm)의 극동산 뱀장어 (Anguilla japonica)에 대한 포르말린의 급성독성 실험 (수온 27～28℃, pH 7.4, 용존산소량 5.6 ppm)을 실시하였다. 특히 이 시험은 뱀장어에서 Pseudodactylogyrus 구제를 위해 포르말린을 사용할 때 치료농도에서 뱀장어가 안전한가를 평가하기 위해서 수행하였다. 포르말린 농도별 (0～500 ppm) 침지 후, 500 ppm에서는 10시간째, 400 ppm에서는 24시간째 전 실험어가 사망하였다. 24시간 경과한 후 300 ppm에서는 96.6% 그리고 200 ppm에서는 13.3%의 누적사망률을 각각 나타내었다. 그러나, 100 ppm에서는 24시간 동안 실험어가 모두 생존하였다. 뱀장어에 대한 포르말린의 24시간-LC50은 269 ppm으로 나타났다.

본 연구는 해수담수화 부산물인 고염해수에 대한 어류의 단기적인 영향을 평가하기 위하여 해양생태독성평가용 표준시험종인 송사리(Oryzias latipes)를 이용하여 급성독성평가 및 행동패턴의 변화를 관찰하였다. 30.0 psu 해수에 순치된 송사리를 7일 동안 고염수에 노출하여 급성독성평가를 수행한 결과, 40.0~80.0 psu에 노출된 송사리의 사망률은 농도-반응의 선형관계가 뚜렷하였다. 반면 40.0 psu 이하의 염분에서는 송사리의 독성반응이 관찰되지 않았으나 50.0 psu 보다 높은 농도에서는 뚜렷한 독성 반응이 나타났다(7-day $LC_{50}$=514 psu). 송사리의 행동 변화 분석은 카메라를 통해 투시된 실시간 배정 영상을 추출하여 현재의 프레임과 차영상을 추출하는 기법을 이용하였다. 고염수 노출에 따른 송사리의 행동변화를 분석한 결과, 40.0 psu와 50.0 psu에 노출되고, 각각 3.1시간과 4.6시간 동안 초기 염분 스트레스를 받은 후에는 안정된 활동패턴을 보였다. 그러나 60.0 psu 보다 높은 농도에 노출된 송사리의 활동량은 염분노출 초기에 급격히 증가하였으며, 50% 가량 사망하였다. 70.0 psu 보다 높은 농도에서 실험생물의 활동량은 노출 후 급격히 증가하였으며, 행동패턴은 심각하게 교란되었고, 12시간 이내에 모든 개체가 사망하였다. 본 연구 결과, 고염해수에 대한 급성독성평가와 행동변화 모니터링 결과는 유의한 연관성이 나타났으며, 따라서 해수담수화에 따른 고염해수의 해양배출은 확산후 최종농도가 50.0 psu 이하로 배출될 수 있도록 조절하여야한다. 또한 카메라 관찰을 통한 영상 분석 기법은 시험생물의 행동변화에 따른 영향을 실시간으로 모니터링할 수 있으므로 조기 경보시스템으로 활용 가지가 높은 것으로 판단된다.

Objectives Tricalcium phosphate and calcium hydrogenorthophosphate are high production volume chemicals, mainly used as foodstuff additives, pharmaceuticals, lubricants, synthetic resin, and disinfectants. Phosphate has the potential to cause increased algal growth leading to eutrophication in the aquatic environment. However, there is no adequate information available on risk assessment or acute and chronic toxicity. The aim of this research is to evaluate the toxic potential of phosphate compounds in the aquatic environment. Methods An aquatic toxicity test of phosphate was conducted, and its physico-chemical properties were obtained from a database recommended in the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) guidance manual. An ecotoxicity test using fish, Daphnia, and algae was conducted by the good laboratory practice facility according to the OECD TG guidelines for testing of chemicals, to secure reliable data. Results The results of the ecotoxicity tests of tricalcium phosphate and calcium hydrogenorthophosphate are as follows: In an acute toxicity test with Oryzias latipes, 96 hr 50% lethal concentration ($LC_{50}$) was >100 (measured:>2.14) mg/L and >100 (measured: >13.5) mg/L, respectively. In the Daphnia test, 48 hr 50% effective concentration ($EC_{50}$) was >100 (measured: >5.35) mg/L and >100 (measured: >2.9) mg/L, respectively. In a growth inhibition test with Pseudokirchneriella subcapitata, 72 hr $EC_{50}$ was >100 (measured: >1.56) mg/L and >100 (measured: >4.4) mg/L, respectively. Conclusions Based on the results of the ecotoxicity test of phosphate using fish, Daphnia, and algae, $L(E)C_{50}$ was above 100 mg/L (nominal), indicating no toxicity. In general, the total phosphorus concentration including phosphate in rivers and lakes reaches levels of several ppm, suggesting that phosphate has no toxic effects. However, excessive inflow of phosphate into aquatic ecosystems has the potential to cause eutrophication due to algal growth.
