21、Summary of Guide4.1 This guide is intended to describe behavioral methodsthat can be applied during routine bioassays. Qualitativebehavioral assessment procedures are intended to providelimited behavioral characterizations that require minimal facil-ity modifications, equipment, or training and are

22、inexpensive toconduct. Quantitative behavioral assessments are more rigor-ous measurements of behavior and are intended for laboratoriesthat have an interest in behavioral testing and can providelimited modifications of facilities and conventional videorecording equipment and limited staff training.

23、4.1.1 Qualitative behavioral screening of spontaneous be-havioral activity provides a broad view of toxicant effectsduring exposure to contaminants. Abnormal behavioral re-sponses observed among fish are documented on a daily basisusing a behavioral checklist that includes categories of re-sponses s

24、uch as lack of feeding, lethargic or frenzied activity,abnormal swimming movements or postures, and lack ofresponse or hyperreactivity to external stimuli (5). The behav-ioral aberrations are based on the absence of response and onobvious differences from the response of untreated fish. Al-though no

25、 attempt is made to quantify the magnitude ofresponse, the consistent observation of response over timeprovides a quantitative measurement of the response. Earlydetection of behavioral abnormalities may warrant quantitativemeasures of specific behavioral patterns.4.2 Quantitative measurements of loc

26、omotory, feeding, andsocial behaviors of fish can be conducted during standardlaboratory exposures, including static, flow-through, sediment,and food exposures from direct observation or overhead videorecordings to determine the effects of sublethal exposure (6).These behavioral responses are highly

27、 sensitive to sublethalexposure and are relevant to survival (7). Data are obtained todetermine the effects of toxic substances on behavior fromshort (for example, 96 h) or long-term (partial to full life cycle)exposures.5. Significance and Use5.1 Protection of a species requires the prevention of d

Behavioraltoxicity tests provide information concerning the sublethaleffects of chemicals and signal the presence of toxic testsubstances.5.1.1 The locomotory, feeding, and socia

Major changes in theseresponses may result in a diminished ability to survive, grow,avoid predation, or reproduce and cause significant changes inthe natural population (8). Fish behavioral responses areknown to be highly sensitive to enviro

31、ublethal contaminant effects (5).5.4 The assessment of locomotory, feeding, and socialbehaviors is useful for monitoring effluents and sediments fromcontaminated field sites as well as for defining no-effectconcentrations in the laboratory or under controlled fieldconditions. Such behavioral modific

32、ations provide an index ofsublethal toxicity and also indicate the potential for subsequentmortality.5.5 Behavioral toxicity data can be used to predict theeffects of exposure likely to occur in the natural environment(10).5.6 Results from behavioral toxicity tests might be animportant consideration

33、 when assessing the hazard of materialsto aquatic organisms. Such results might also be used whenderiving water quality criteria for fish and aquatic invertebrateorganisms.5.7 Results from behavioral toxicity tests can be used tocompare the sensitivities of different species, the relativetoxicity of

34、 different chemical substances on the same organism,or the effect of various environmental variables on the toxicityof a chemical substance.5.8 Results of behavioral toxicity tests can be useful inguiding decisions regarding the extent of remedial actionneeded for contaminated aquatic and terrestria

35、l sites.5.9 The behavioral characteristics of a particular organismneed to be understood and defined before a response can beused as a measure of toxicity (11). Swimming, feeding, andsocial behavior varies among species as well as among lifestages within a species; the most effective test methods ar

36、etherefore those tailored to a particular life stage of a singlespecies. The range of variability of any behavioral response ofunexposed organisms is influenced by genetic, experiential,physiological, and environmental factors. It is thus important toavoid selecting test organisms from populations t

37、hat may varyin these factors.E 1711 95 (2008)25.10 Results of behavioral toxicity tests will depend on thebehavioral response measured, testing conditions, water qual-ity, species, genetic strain, life stage, health, and condition oftest organisms. The behavioral response may therefore beaffected by

38、 the test environment.5.11 No numerical value or range of values has been definedas the norm for swimming, feeding, or social behavior for anyfish; the detection of abnormal activity is therefore based oncomparisons of the responses of exposed fish, either withactivity measured during a baseline or

39、pre-exposure period orobservations of fish under a control treatment (10).5.12 These measures are incorporated readily into standardtoxicity test protocols, with minimal stress to the test organism.6. Interferences6.1 A number of factors can suppress, elicit, or alterlocomotory, feeding, and social

40、responses and thus influencebehavioral test results and complicate data interpretation. Thefollowing factors should be considered when measuring be-havioral responses during toxicity tests:6.1.1 The pretest handling of test organisms resulting fromcollection, transfer, and maintenance of the culture

41、 environ-ment can affect the response observed during exposure to toxicsubstances.6.1.2 The health, nutritional state, and physical condition ofthe organism can influence the test.6.1.3 Behavioral responsiveness may vary by species, ge-netic strain, population, gender, and developmental stage of the

42、organism.6.1.4 Prior exposure to hazardous materials, environmentalstresses, and pathogens can affect behavioral responses.6.1.5 Social status, such as the dominance or sex of theindividuals tested, and experiential factors, such as priorexperience with the predator or prey species, can influence th

43、ebehavioral response. Individuals tested in isolation may re-spond differently from when tested in groups.6.1.6 Cyclical changes (circadian, seasonal, annual, hor-monal, and reproductive) in behavioral responses can occur.6.1.7 The behavioral response can be affected by the appa-ratus design and pro

44、cedural sequence of the measurementmethod.6.1.8 Behavioral responses will vary according to the extentto which test organisms acclimate to the physical variables ofthe testing environment, including water quality, temperature,water flow, light, cover, and substrate, as well as their recoveryfrom han

45、dling, acceptance of diet, and adjustment to noveltesting chambers.6.1.9 It is very important to eliminate disturbances to thetest system, such as vibrations, slamming doors, castingshadows, abrupt changes in lighting, or water flow, that mayfrighten the fish or disrupt ongoing activity.6.1.10 Behav

46、ioral responses to toxic substances may sub-side over time.6.1.11 Precise, objective, operational definitions of behav-ioral endpoints measured during toxicity tests are required.6.1.12 Generally, excessive mortality among controls (seeGuides E 729 and E 1241), high variability in the behavioralresp

47、onse of controls, disease, or variation in water quality orexperimental parameters beyond acceptable limits, and incon-sistent visualization of the organism are the basis for rejectinga behavioral test. The criteria for such limits will varydepending on the substance, species, and response being tes

Safety Precautions7.1 Many substances may pose health risks to humans ifadequate precautions are not taken. Information on toxicity tohumans, recommended handling pro

49、cedures, and the chemicaland physical properties of the test material should be studiedand all personnel informed before an exposure is initiated.(WarningSpecial procedures might be necessary with radio-labeled test materials and with test materials that are, or aresuspected of being, carcinogenic.)7.2 Many materials can affect humans adversely if precau-tions are inadequate. Contact with test material, sediments, andwater should be minimized. Where appropriate, protectivegloves, laboratory coats, aprons, protective clothing, and safetyglasses should be worn, and dip nets, sie
