Abstract

Microalgae are the potential bioindicators of environmental changes, for the environmental risk assessment as well as to set limits for toxic chemical release in the aquatic environment. Here, we evaluated the effects of two endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs), namely bisphenol A (BPA) and Aroclor 1016, on the green algae Tetraselmis suecica, diatom Ditylum brightwellii, and dinoflagellate Prorocentrum minimum. Each species showed wide different sensitivity ranges when exposed to these two EDCs; the 72 h effective concentration ($EC_{50}$) for these test species showed that Aroclor 1016 was more toxic than BPA. $EC_{50}$ values for the diatom D. birghtwellii were calculated at 0.037 mg/L for BPA and 0.002 mg/L for Aroclor 1016, representing it was the most sensitive when compared to the other species. In addition, these results suggest that these EDC discharge beyond these concentrations into the aquatic environments may cause harmful effect to these marine species.

미세조류는 수환경으로 유입되는 독성물질의 배출기준을 설정하거나 환경영향을 평가하기 위한 환경변화의 잠재적 생물지표이다. 본 논문에서 해양 미세조류인 녹조류 Tetraselmis suecica, 규조류 Ditylum brightwellii, 와편모조류 Prorocentrum minimum에 대한 내분비 교란물질(EDCs) 비스페놀 A (BPA)와 Aroclor 1016의 영향을 평가하였다. 처리한 EDCs에 대하여 각각의 종은 매우 다른 민감도 차이를 보였다. 각 종에 대한 50% 영향농도($EC_{50}$)는 Aroclor 1016가 BPA보다 더 유해하였다. 실험에 사용한 미세조류중에서 규조류 D. birghtwellii(0.037 mg/L BPA과 0.002 mg/L Aroclor 1016)가 다른 종보다 매우 민감하게 반응하는 것으로 조사되었다. 본 연구 결과는 수서생태계에로 배출되는 기준 농도 이상의 EDCs가 해양 생물에게 유해 효과가 있다는 것을 제시해 준다.
