They repres
19、ent important prey items for the benthic larvae of many fish species and larger invertebrates and constitute an ecologically important energy-transfer link between the organic phase of the sediment and higher trophic levels. The euryhaline brackish water harpactoid Nitocra spinipes (Crustacea) is a
20、common component of the benthic meiofana in shallow coastal waters around the world (see Reference 6).

23、 y s u i t a b l y q u a l i f i e d s t a f f . 1 Scope This Technical Specification specifies an early-life stage procedure for determination of the toxic effects of chemicals and water samples on a cold-water brackish water copepod species under semi- static conditions. The biological test variab
24、les include survival and development of the early-life stages. The exposure starts with newly hatched (24 h) nauplii (larvae) and is continued until emergence of (c. 50 %) copepodites (juveniles) in the control. The benthic living Nitocra complements the planktonic Acartia species in ISO 16778. Thes
25、e organisms represent different life-history strategies as Nitocra is egg-carrying, whereas Acartia is a broadcasting calanoid copepod and thus, different sensitivities of specific life stages. Nitocra is a fresh to brackish water species, which allows testing low salinity waters and is complementar
26、y to A. tonsa, which is of marine origin and poorly tolerates low salinities. 2 Terms a nd definiti ons For the purposes of this document, the following terms and definitions apply. 2.1 nauplii larvae 2.2 copepodites juveniles 2.3 larval development ratio LDR ratio of copepodites (2.2) to the total

30、te of the concentration, in grams per kilogram, of dissolved salts in sea water Note 1 to entry: It is defined algorithmically, in terms of the ratio (K15) of the electrical conductivity of the sample, at 15 C and 1 atm, to that of defined potassium chloride solution (32,436 6 g/kg of sample) at the
31、 same temperature and pressure. 3 Principle The test is an early-life stage test, in which the organisms are exposed to various concentrations of a test substance or water sample under semi-static test conditions from the first naupliar stage (N-1) to the first copepodite stages (C-1, C-2, etc.). Su
32、rvival and development of early-life stages larval development ratio (LDR), are the investigated test variables. The exposure starts with newly hatched (24 h) nauplii (larvae) and is continued until the emergence of (approximately 50 %) copepodites (juveniles) in the control. The total test duration
33、 is about 6 d to 7 d, which is sufficient time to investigate the development from N-1 to 50 % copepodites in the control. The naupliar (larval) and copepodite (juvenile) stages are morphologically distinct, and therefore, the transition from the last naupliar to the first copepodite stage is easily
34、 observed. The outcome of the test is either the no observed effect concentration (NOEC) and the lowest observed effect concentration (LOEC) values or the effect concentrations with a certain degree (x %) of inhibition (EC x ) (e.g. EC 50and EC 10 ). 4 Reagents 4.1 Test organism The species to be us
35、ed is the brackish water harpacticoid copepod Nitocra spinipes Boeck. Newly hatched (less than 24 h of age) nauplii should be collected from a healthy stock (i.e. showing no signs of stress, such as high mortality, poor fecundity, etc.). The stock animals shall be maintained in culture conditions (l
36、ight, temperature, medium and feeding) similar to those to be used in the test (culturing method for N. spinipes is described in Annex A).2 ISO 2016 All rights reservedPD ISO/TS 18220:2016ISO/TS 18220:2016(E) 4.2 Water, deionized or of equivalent purity, to prepare artificial sea water or to dilute
37、natural sea water. 4.2.1 Artificial sea w at er An example of artificial sea water suitable for cultivation and testing is included in Annex A. Any artificial sea water with a known composition in which the copepods show suitable long-term survival, normal behaviour, development and fecundity may be
38、 used as culture and dilution medium (4.3). 4.2.2 Natural sea water Natural sea water shall be collected from an unpolluted location. Any natural sea water with a known composition in which the copepods show suitable long-term survival, normal behaviour, development and fecundity may be used as cult
39、ure and dilution medium. Suspended particles shall be 10 mg/l and can be stored cold for approximately 6 months before preparation of culture or dilution medium. 4.3 Medium 4.3.1 Culture medium Culture medium is used for cultivating Nitocra spinipes and is prepared from either natural or artificial
40、sea water (4.2). Natural sea water shall be filtered (30 m) and heated to 80 C to kill undesired organisms and then conditioned (24 h) to culture temperature and oxygen saturation. The culture medium can be stored cold for several weeks. 4.3.2 Dilution medium Dilution medium is used for diluting wat
41、er samples or dissolving chemicals and is prepared from culture medium that has first been filtered (GF/C-1,2 m) before use. Salinity of the dilution medium should be the same as the culture medium. Salinities between 3 and 25 can be used. The dilution medium shall have a dissolved oxygen concentrat
42、ion above 70 % of the air saturation value and a pH of 7,5 1,0 before being used to prepare the test solutions. If the physical conditions or the salinity of the medium to be used in the test differ more than 5 C or 10 % from those used for routine culturing, it is good practice to include an adequa
43、te cultivating acclimation period at the same salinity (2 ) of 2 weeks to 3 weeks to avoid stressing of the larvae. 5 Cultivation 5.1 Test organism See Annex A for detailed information. 5.2 Algae for feeding See Annex A for detailed information. 6 Apparatus All equipment, which will come in contact
44、with the test medium, shall be made of glass or chemically inert material. 6.1 Glass vessels, approximately 150 ml, diameter 8 cm, and height 4,5 cm, for Nitocra spinipes cultivation.

45、er 2,5 cm, height 4 cm, with flat bottom. 6.3 pH meter. 6.4 Oxygen meter. 6.5 Conductivity meter. 6.6 Wide pipettes, for sampling animals, preferably salinized to prevent copepods from adhering to pipette walls. 6.7 Temperature-control cabinet or room, (22 1) C. 6.8 Low-magnifying stereo microscope.
46、 6.9 Inverted microscope. 6.10 A ppar atus for memb r ane filtr ation. 6.11 Filters, 1,2 m and 30 m. 7 Procedure 7.1 Production of nauplii to be used in test Nauplii aged less than 24 h are used for initiating a test. To produce a sufficient number of nauplii, the procedure presented below should be
47、 followed. The day before the test starts, approximately 300 females with well-developed egg sacs are sampled by pipette under a low-magnifying stereomicroscope and randomly transferred (approximately 60 in each) to six glass “hatch” vessels containing 100 ml dilution medium. The isolated female cop
48、epods are fed with a suspension of Rhodomonas salina to a concentration of 2,5 10 5cells/ml. 7.2 Choice of test concentrations The range of the test concentrations should preferably not include any concentrations that have a significant effect on survival since the main objective of the test is to m
49、easure sublethal effects (i.e. development). Prior knowledge of the toxicity of the test substance, i.e. from an acute test (see Reference 2) or from range-finding studies, should help in selecting appropriate test concentrations. As a rule of thumb, the highest concentration in the early-life stage test should be set at 10 % to 20 % of the acute 96 h-LC 50to avoid significant effect on survival. At least five different concentrations should be tested in a geometric series with a factor between concentrations not
