Scope1.1 This practice covers procedures for obtaining dataconcerning toxicity and other effects of a test material to amulti-trophic level freshwater c

3、ommunity.1.2 These procedures also might be useful for studying thefate of test materials and transformation products, althoughmodifications and additional analytical procedures might benecessary.1.3 Modification of these procedures might be justified byspecial needs or circumstances. Although using

4、 appropriateprocedures is more important than following prescribed pro-cedures, results of tests conducted using unusual proceduresare not likely to be comparable to results of many other tests.Comparison of results obtained using modified and unmodifiedversions of these procedures might provide use

Terminology3.1 The words “must,” “should,”“ may,” “can,” and

15、“might”have very specific meanings in this practice. “Must” is used toexpress an absolute requirement, that is, to state that the testought to be designed to satisfy the specific condition, unless thepurpose of the test requires a different design. “Must” is onlyused in connection with factors that

16、directly relate to theacceptability of the test (see Section 17). “Should” is used tostate that the specified condition is recommended and ought tobe met in most tests. Although a violation of one “should” israrely a serious matter, violation of several will often render theresults questionable. Ter

17、ms such as “is desirable,” “is oftendesirable,” and “might be desirable” are used in connectionwith less important factors. “May” is used to mean “is (are)allowed to,”“ can” is used to mean “is (are) able to,” and“might” is used to mean “could possibly.” Thus, the classicdistinction between “may” an

18、d “can” is preserved, and “might”is never used as a synonym for either “may” or “can.”3.2 For definitions of other terms used in this practice, referto Guide E729, Terminology E943, and Guide E1023.

19、 Standard:3.3.1 algal biovolume, nan estimate of the total volume ofalgal cells (31043/mL) (see 14.1.10).3.3.2 available algae, nan estimate of the volume of algae(31043/mL) presumed available to the Daphnia (see14.1.10).3.3.2.1 DiscussionThe estimate is calculated from thenumerical abundance of eac

20、h species of algae, its nominalvolume, and an availability factor based on its size and growthcharacteristics (see 14.1.10). Small algal cells are presumed100 % available and large, filamentous forms are presumed 1to 20 % available. Species that attach to sediment or walls arepresumed to be less ava

21、ilable than planktonic forms.3.3.3 axenic, adja culture of organisms growing withoutneighbors, that is, pure culture free from contaminant organ-isms (see gnotobiotic (12)3).3.3.4 community metabolism, nthe oxygen or carbonbalance of the entire community.3.3.4.1 DiscussionIn this microcosm, communit

22、y me-tabolism is estimated by the gain in oxygen during the lightedperiod (an estimate of net photosynthesisP) and the loss ofoxygen during the dark period (an estimate of respirationR).When expressed as a P/R ratio, a value of 1 indicates thatautotrophic processes are dominant; a value of 1.8 mm),

23、three large with eggs, three without eggs, and tensmall (0.7 mm); 12 amphipods (six adults and six small), andsix ostracods.11.2.4 Stock CulturesStock cultures should be maintainedfor reinoculation during the test (11.6).11.3 Culling and AssignmentOn Day 7, the necessarynumber of microcosms should b

24、e selected for the test. Anymicrocosms in cracked jars should be eliminated becausecracks tend to grow and leak. Data through Day 7 on thefollowing measurements (see 12.5) should be used to deter-mine culls: change in dissolved oxygen from a.m. to p.m., pH,number of Daphnia, the number of Selenastru

25、m and Chlamy-domonas, and the dominant algae early in microcosm devel-opment. The necessary number of test systems with the leastvariation from one another in these measurements should besaved and the others discarded or used for other purposes (forexample, as amphipod and ostracod cultures).11.3.1

26、Treatment AssignmentThe selected microcosmsshould be numbered and a random number table used to assigneach microcosm to a treatment and to a position separately onthe light table (Fig. 1). For table position the microcosms areassigned to 6 blocks, and randomly assigned to each. Treat-ments must be r

27、andomly assigned to individual test chamberlocations. A randomized block design (with each treatmentbeing present in each block, which may be a row or arectangle) is preferable to a completely randomized design.Microcosms are then numbered consecutively as in Fig. 1.TABLE 6 Medium T85MVK Composition

Eac

34、h microcosm should bestirred with a glass rod after test chemical or solvent, or both,are added.11.4.2 Multiple AdditionThe test material may be addedbiweekly or weekly after sampling. The volume of eachmicrocosm should be measured again before test materialaddition and the addition calculated to pr

35、ovide the appropriateconcentration. If residual test material in the microcosm is tobe measured, the samples should be removed prior to the newaddition. It is recommended that medium T82MV not be addedto compensate for sample removal, any medium additionwould serve as a source of nutrients and elimi

36、nate the need fornutrient recycling to occur for continued photosynthesis. How-ever, medium addition may be necessary if large samples mustbe removed for test chemical analyses (See 11.5.6.2(e) Dis-tilled water is not added because it could cause osmoticimbalances.11.5 Measurements:NOTE 4Each task s

37、hould be assigned to a person . All data should bewritten on computer data sheets as they are collected Microcosms shouldbe grouped by treatments on the data sheets. When a microcosm breaks ordata are missing for a measurement, an entry should still be made thatincludes experiment designation, subco

38、de, microcosm number and testday number, and the data portion left blank.NOTE 5Separate probes, and other equipment (containers, scrapers,stirrers, and syringes) should be used for each treatment. It is recom-mended that where possible all sampling devices be autoclaved orotherwise sterilized prior

39、to the beginning of each test. Although aseptictechniques are not required for most of the sampling procedures, careshould be exercised to avoid contamination with other organisms; forexample, none of the sampling devices should be used with lake orsediment samples. Care should be taken so that mixi

40、ng of even smallamounts of test and control microcosms is avoided.11.5.1 Sampling FrequencySampling and measurementof organism abundances and physical factors should be donetwice each week until the end of the test, usually Day 63.Measurements should be done on the same test day for eachtest if it i

41、s desirable to compare data between tests. Tuesdaysand Fridays are the most convenient days because the first twooxygen measurements (of the 3-point method) can be takenMonday and Thursday; thus, no weekend work is required onthis schedule.11.5.2 TurbidityPrior to dissolved oxygen determinations,app

42、roximately 5 mL should be withdrawn from each unstirredmicrocosm for measurement of turbidity. If the instrument doesnot provide a digital output of absorbance, t, the percenttransmittance should be recorded, and converted to opticaldensity during the computerized data processing (14.1.7).11.5.3 Vol

43、umeAn external calibrated rod may be used toestimate volume. A30-cm rod may be calibrated to a samplemicrocosm jar containing 200 g of microcosm sediment sandand 500 mL of medium or water. The first gradation is markednext to the liquid level and designated 500 mL.Aliquots of 100mL of water are adde

44、d and the stick marked each time until3500 mL is reached. On sampling days, volume can bemeasured by holding the calibrated rod against a microcosmand noting on a data sheet which gradation is closest to themicrocosm water level.11.5.4 Dissolved OxygenDissolved oxygen concentra-tions should be measu

45、red 3 times: before lights-on (8:00 to9:00 a.m.) and late afternoon (4:00 to 5:30 p.m.) before asampling day, and the predawn before sampling (8:00 to 9:00a.m.). Separate probes, marked with tape or symbol should beused for each test material. They are calibrated and stored inthe mouth of reagent bo

46、ttles, unplugged from the meter. Foruse, probes should be plugged into the meter, standardized andreadings taken. If the test involves a control group and morethan one concentration of a test material, all replicates with testmaterial are read using the same probe, the group with thelowest concentra

47、tion of test material being measured first. Theprobe is rinsed with distilled water between groups. Controlreplicates are always measured only with the control probe.The a.m. measurements are taken before the lights are on usinga flashlight to observe meter readings and microcosms. Thep.m. measureme

48、nts are taken late in the afternoon aftermaximum photosynthetic activity has been achieved. Dis-solved oxygen is measured while moving the probe in acircular motion. A self-stirring probe may be used.11.5.5 pHpH values should be measured before lights-oneach sampling day. Separate probes are used fo
