Additional information
A study was conducted to evaluate the acute toxicity of the palm kernel stearin toAcartia tonsaunder static conditions. The procedures followed ISO 14669:1999 "Water quality" Part 5: Biological methods Section 5.24: Determination of acute lethal toxicity to marine copepods (Copepoda, Crustacea). Acartia tonsa were exposed towater accommodated fractions prepared fromthe test material at concentrations ranging from 10 to 1,000 mg/L for 48 h and immobility was determined at 24 and 48 h. Under the test conditions, the 48 h EL50 of the test substance was determined to be > 1,000 mg/L (Worden and Sherren, 2004).
A study was conducted to evaluate the acute toxicity of the palm kernel olein toAcartia tonsaunder static conditions. The procedures followed ISO 14669:1999 "Water quality" Part 5: Biological methods Section 5.24: Determination of acute lethal toxicity to marine copepods (Copepoda, Crustacea). Acartia tonsa were exposed towater accomodated fractions prepared fromthe test material at concentrations ranging from 10 to 1,000 mg/L for 48 h and immobility was determined at 24 and 48 h. Under the test conditions, the 48 h EL50 of the test substance was determined to be >1,000 mg/L (Worden and Sherren, 2004).
A study was conducted to evaluate the acute toxicity of the constituent C8 -18, C18 -unsatd. (palm kernel oil) to Acartia tonsa under static conditions. The method followed the guideline ISO 14669:1999 "Water quality" Part 5: Biological methods Section 5.24: Determination of acute lethal toxicity to marine copepods (Copepoda, Crustacea). Acartia tonsa were exposed to water accomodated fractions prepared from the constituent at concentrations ranging from 10 to 1,000 mg/L for 48 h and immobility was determined at 24 and 48 h. Under the test conditions, the 48 h EL50 of the constituent was determined to be >1,000 mg/L (Worden and Sherren, 2004).
A study was conducted to evaluate the acute toxicity of water accommodated fractions (WAFs) or dispersions (in Tween 80) of crude and refined palm oil to Acartia tonsa under static conditions. Acartia tonsa was exposed to crude and refined palm oil at concentrations up to either 3200 (crude oil) or upto 1000 (refined oil) mg/L for 48 h. Based on the results obtained, the 48 h acute toxicity (LC50/LL50) of crude palm oil to Acartia tonsa was considered to be > 3,200 mg/L (WAFs) and > 1,000 mg/L (dispersions). The 48 h acute toxicity (LC50/LL50) of refined palm oil to Acartia tonsa were considered to be > 1,000 mg/L (WAFs) and ca. 1,000 mg/L (dispersions) (Bowmer, 1998).
A study was conducted to evaluate the acute toxicity of crude soybean oil to Acartia tonsa under static conditions. The procedure was based on guidelines issued by ISO 14669, ISO 10253 and GESAMP. Acartia tonsa were exposed to water accomodated fractions (WAF) prepared fromthe test material at concentrations of 0 and 1,000 mg/L and immobility was determined at 0, 24 and 48 h. 3,5 -dichlorophenol was used as a reference substance. Under the test conditions, the 48 h EL50 of crude soybean oil was determined to be > 1,000 mg/L (Worden and Sherren, 2002).
A study was conducted to evaluate the acute toxicity of crude palm oil to Acartia tonsa under static conditions. The procedure was based on guidelines issued by ISO 14669, ISO 10253 and GESAMP. Acartia tonsa were exposed towater accomodated fractions prepared fromthe test material at concentrations of 0 and 1,000 mg/Land immobility was determined at 0, 24 and 48 h. 3,5 -dichlorophenol was used as a reference substance. Under the test conditions, the 48 h EL50 of test substance was determined to be > 1,000 mg/L (Worden and Sherren, 2002).
A study was conducted to evaluate the acute toxicity of "Glycerides C8 -18, C18 -unsatd (coconut oil)" to Acartia tonsa under static conditions. The procedures followed ISO 14669:1999 "Water quality" Part 5: Biological methods Section 5.24: Determination of acute lethal toxicity to marine copepods (Copepoda, Crustacea). Acartia tonsa were exposed towater accommodated fractions prepared fromthe test material at concentrations ranging from 10 to 1,000 mg/L for 48 h and immobility was determined at 24 and 48 h. Based on the results, the 48 h EL50 of the test substance was determined to be between 100 and 1,000 mg/L ((Worden and Sherren, 2004).
