11、f national standards bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. In

12、ternational organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.International Standards are drafted in accordance with t

13、he rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval b

15、TC 147, Water quality, Subcommittee SC 5, Biological methods.ISO 14380:2011(E)iv ISO 2011 All rights reservedBS ISO 14380:2011IntroductionThe evaluation of harmful effects on water quality has for several years involved the performance of biological tests. Crustaceans are of interest from the ecotox

16、icological point of view because they are primary consumers and a major component of the zooplankton in aquatic ecosystems.The test specified in this International Standard involves determination of the lethal effects on the fresh water fairy shrimp Thamnocephalus platyurus after 24 h exposure to th

17、e toxicant. A rapid test can also be carried out to determine sublethal effects after a very short exposure time (1 h).The beavertail fairy shrimp T. platyurus is to date already used extensively in toxicity testing for several reasons:a) this anostracan crustacean has a sensitivity to chemicals whi

18、ch is quite similar to that of the cladoceran crustacean Daphnia magna (see References 4567);b) the assays are performed with neonates hatched from dormant eggs (cysts), which bypasses the need for culturing or maintaining live stock cultures of test organisms;c) T. platyurus neonates are substantia

19、lly smaller than neonates of Daphnia magna, hence the assays require much smaller test containers, and much less bench space and incubation space;d) T. platyurus is very sensitive to cyanotoxins produced by algal blooms in eutrophicated waters (see References 89).ISO 14380:2011(E) ISO 2011 All right

This standar

21、d does not purport to address all of the safety problems, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user to establish appropriate safety and health practices and to ensure compliance with any national regulatory conditions.IMPORTANT It is absolutely essential that tests conduc

22、ted in accordance with this International Standard be carried out by suitably qualified staff.1 ScopeThis International Standard specifies a method for the determination of the lethal effects of toxicants to Thamnocephalus platyurus test organisms after 24 h exposure. A second method (rapid test) is

23、 described in Annex A for the determination of sublethal effects after a very short exposure time (1 h).The methods are applicable to:a) chemical substances which are soluble or which can be maintained as stable suspensions or dispersions under the conditions of the test;b) industrial or sewage effl

24、uents, treated or untreated, if appropriate after decantation, filtration or centrifugation;c) fresh waters;d) aqueous extracts;e) toxins of blue-green algae.This International Standard is not applicable to the testing of unstable chemicals (hydrolysing, absorbing, etc.) in water unless exposure con

25、centration is measured, nor to the testing of aquatic samples from the estuarine or marine environment.2 Normative referencesThe following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document.

36、(see Reference 13). Thus prepared, the medium has a pH of 7,6 0,3.When stored in a refrigerator at (4 2) C in the dark, the solution can be used for several months.Aerate the test medium until the dissolved oxygen concentration has reached the air saturation value and until the pH has stabilized. If

37、 necessary, adjust the pH to 7,6 0,3 using sodium hydroxide or hydrochloric acid solutions. The concentration of the acid or base required shall be selected so that the volume to be admixed is as small as possible.

43、 of the samples should be performed as specified in ISO 5667-16.Carry out the toxicity test as soon as possible, ideally within 12 h of collection. If this time interval cannot be met, cool the sample to 0 C to 5 C and test the sample within 24 h. If it is not possible to perform the test within 72

44、h, the sample may be frozen and maintained deep-frozen (below 18 C) for testing within 2 months of collection, provided that characteristics are known to be unaffected by freezing. At the time of testing, homogenize the sample to be analysed by shaking manually, and, if necessary, allow to settle fo

45、r 2 h in a container, and sample by drawing off (using a pipette) the required quantity of supernatant, maintaining the end of the pipette in the centre of the section of the test tube and halfway between the surface of the deposited substances and the surface of the liquid.If the raw sample of the

46、decanted supernatant is likely to interfere with the test (due to the presence of residual suspended matter, protozoa, microorganisms, etc.), filter or centrifuge the raw or decanted sample.The sample obtained by either of these methods is the sample submitted to testing.Measure the pH (as specified

47、 in ISO 10523) and the dissolved oxygen concentration (as specified in ISO 5814) and record these values in the test report.If the aim of the test is to assess the acute toxicity without considering the pH effects, the test may also be carried out after adjustment of the pH value to 7,6 0,3 with hyd

48、rochloric acid or sodium hydroxide solutions. Proceed, if appropriate, as indicated above, for the separation of the suspended matter formed following the adjustment of the pH. Mention any pH adjustment in the test report.8.2 Preparation of the stock solutions of substances to be testedPrepare the s
