, the elimination phase begins. The elimination phase must not be measured. Unless the two groups of test substances with different susceptibility are obviously incompatible, a more complex collection rate constant should be used. The elimination rate constant is used to produce the test substance in the edible part (fish meat) and the inedible part (P>3). When determining the test substance, the edible part (fish meat) and the inedible part (P>3) should be used. 21800—2008
6.1.1 Selection of endangered species
The criteria for selecting fish species: easy access, suitable size and easy to raise in the laboratory. Also include entertainment, commercial, ecological value, relative sensitivity and successful selection.
The recommended test fish species are shown in Appendix B: other fish species can also be used, but the test conditions should be adjusted accordingly, and the reasons for the selection of fish species and the test methods should be stated in the report.
6,1.2. Fish culture
The test fish should be cultured in water at the same temperature as the test for more than 2 weeks, and fed with feed equivalent to 1% to 2% of the fish body weight every day. The fat and total protein content of the feed should be measured. It is recommended to measure the content of pesticides and heavy metals. From the beginning of the culture of the test fish to 48 hours, record the mortality rate and judge according to the following standards: a) The mortality rate of the test fish within 7 days is greater than 10%: discard the whole batch of fish; b) The mortality rate of the test fish within 7 days is between 5% and 10%: culture for another 7 days c) The mortality rate of the test fish within 7 days is less than 5%: accept the current batch of fish: If the mortality rate of the test fish exceeds 5% within the second 7 days, discard the whole batch of fish.
Deformed or diseased fish cannot be used as test fish and should be discarded. No disease prevention and treatment should be given to the fish during the test and two weeks before the test. If adult fish are used in the test, it should be reported whether the test fish is male or female or a mixture of both. If male and female fish are mixed in the test, there should be no significant difference in the fat content of the two. Male and female fish should be kept together. 6.2 Water for acclimation
The acclimation water is generally derived from natural water of the same quality and without pollution. The test fish species can survive, grow and reproduce in the acclimation water and do not show any abnormal appearance or behavior during the acclimation period. The water characteristics should at least include pH, hardness, particulate matter, total organic carbon, ammonium and nitrite content, alkalinity and salinity (for marine fish only). Appendix A recommends the maximum concentration values of some parameters for freshwater and seawater.
7 Test procedure
7.1 Preparation
7.1.1 Test container
The test container should be made of chemically inert materials and have no significant adsorption to the test substance. It is recommended to use Teflon materials, stainless steel or glass tubes, and reduce plastic hoses to a minimum. For substances with high adsorption coefficients, silanized glass is required. Used containers must be discarded.
7.1.2 Test dilution water
The source and quality of dilution water should be the same as that of aquaculture water. During the entire test period, the quality of the test water should remain stable, the pH value should be maintained at 6.0~8.5, and the pH value change range should be maintained within the range of ±0.5. The dilution water should be sampled and analyzed regularly, including the determination of heavy metals (such as Cu, Pb, Zn, Hg, Cd, Ni), major anions and cations (such as Ca2~, Mg+, Na, K+CI-SO.-, pesticides (such as total organic phosphorus and total organochlorine pesticides), total organic carbon and suspended solids.
The maximum acceptable mass concentration of natural particulate matter in the dilution water is 5rmg/L (dry matter intercepted by a 0.45μm filter membrane), and the maximum acceptable value of total organic carbon is 2IⅡB/L (see Appendix A). During the entire test, the organic carbon from other sources in the test container should not exceed the organic carbon from the test substance. If a co-solvent is used, it should not exceed 10mg/L (±20%). 7.1.3 Preparation of test substance solution
Prepare a stock solution of the test substance at an appropriate concentration. It is recommended to prepare the stock solution by simply mixing or stirring the test substance in the dilution water. Co-solvents or dispersants should be used as little as possible or with caution. 3
GB/T 21800—2008
agent. The cosolvents that can be used are ethanol, methanol, ethylene glycol monomethyl ether, ethylene glycol dimethyl ether, dimethylformamide and triethylene glycol. The dispersants that can be used are Cremophor RH40 (ethoxylated hydrogenated sesame oil), Tween 80 (sorbitan monooleate ester), 0.01% methylcellulose and HCO-40 (ethoxylated hydrogenated sesame oil): At least 5 times the volume of water in the test tank should be replaced every day. The flow rate of the stock solution and dilution water should be checked 48 hours before the start of the test and at least once during each test. Check the water flow rate of each test tank to ensure that the water flow rate does not change by more than 20% within each test or between tests.
7.2 Test operation
7.2.1 Preliminary test
Optimize the test conditions, such as the concentration of the test substance, the duration of the absorption phase and the clearance phase. 7. 2. 2 Experimental Design Fish should be exposed to at least two concentrations of the test substance. Normally, the higher (or highest) concentration should be 1% of the acute VCs and should be at least 10 times the method detection limit of the test substance in water. The highest test concentration can also be estimated by dividing the 96h LC by the appropriate acute and chronic ratio. If possible, other concentration series can be selected. If the VCs are limited to 1% and the lower limit of analysis, a concentration greater than 1% should not be used. When an organic solvent is used in the experiment, the solubility of the solvent should be determined, and at least one of the dilution water controls should be set up. 7.2.3 Exposure Conditions 7.2.3. 1 Absorption step The duration of the absorption phase or the octanol-water separation characteristics can be predicted (see Appendix C). The duration of the absorption phase should be 2. The absorption phase should be prolonged. 7.2.3.2 Elimination phase duration The duration of the elimination phase can be measured as the absorption phase. If the duration of the elimination phase is too long, for example, the absorption phase is too long, for example, the absorption phase is too long. Consider the use of 4 labeled test substances. Any concentration should be the same in all tests. For example, when the test substance concentration is less than 10% of the cumulative concentration, the steady state or the absorption phase is broken ... If stability has not been reached after 28a, a shorter method is used.
explanation), if 95% clearance is achieved, then the clearance phase time can be shortened (for example, a longer clearance time is needed to determine the clearance rate constant. The clearance phase time should depend on the concentration of the test substance in the fish. According to 7.2.3.3 Number of test fish
The number of test fish required for each test concentration should ensure that at least 4 layers of fish are sampled each time. If a larger statistical sample is required, more fish will be needed.
When testing, test fish with similar body size should be selected, and the smallest fish weight should be less than two-thirds of the largest fish weight. All test fish should be of the same age and from the same source. Accurately record the mass and age of the test fish. It is recommended to take samples and weigh the test fish before the test. 7.2.3.4 Carrying capacity
The recommended carrying rate is 0.1g/(d·L)1.0g/(d·L) of fish weight (wet weight). If the concentration fluctuation of the test substance can be kept within 20% of the soil and the dissolved oxygen concentration is not less than 60% of the saturation value, the carrying capacity can be increased. When selecting an appropriate carrying capacity, the normal growth environment required by the fish species should be considered. 7.2.3,5 Feeding
During the test period, use the same feed as during the rearing period. Feed the fish with feed equivalent to 1% to 2% of their body weight every day. It is recommended to take samples and weigh the test fish before the test. It can be based on The mass of the fish in each test shall be estimated based on the weight of the fish sampled most recently. The mass of the fish in the test shall not be weighed.
GB/T21800—2008
Within 30min60min after feeding each day, use a siphon to remove the remaining bait and fish excrement in the test tank. Keep the test tank as clean as possible during the entire test to ensure that the concentration of organic matter is as low as possible. 7.2.3.6 Light and temperature
During the test, the light cycle should be 12h~~16h, and the temperature should be controlled within ±2℃ of the most suitable temperature for the test fish species (see Appendix B). 7.2.4 Frequency of water quality measurement
Test The dissolved oxygen, TOC, pH and temperature in all test containers should be measured at all times. The total hardness and salinity should be measured in the control group and the higher or highest test concentration group. During the absorption phase, the dissolved oxygen should be measured at least 3 times, namely at the beginning of the test, in the middle of the absorption phase and at the end. The clearance phase should be measured once a week. TOC should be measured before the test fish are put into the test (24h~48h before the absorption phase), at least once a week during the absorption phase and the clearance phase. PH should be measured at the beginning and end of each phase. Hardness should be measured once for each test. The temperature should be measured daily, and the temperature in at least one test container should be monitored continuously. 7.2.5 Sampling and analysis of test fish and water
7.2.5.1 Sampling schedule for test fish and water
Water samples should be collected from the test tank for test substance concentration determination before adding the test fish, during the absorption phase, and during the clearance phase. The frequency of water sampling should be no less than that of fish sampling and should be carried out before feeding. Fish samples should be collected at least 5 times during the absorption phase and at least 4 times during the clearance phase. In some cases, it is difficult to calculate a sufficiently accurate BCF value with only these few samples, so it is recommended to increase the number of samplings in both phases (see Appendix D). Appendix D gives an example of a sampling schedule. Using other estimates of P to calculate the exposure time for 95% absorption, a cabinet-related schedule can also be obtained.
Sampling should be continued during the absorption phase until steady state occurs or 28 days of the test period (whichever is shorter). If steady state has not been reached after 28 days, sampling should continue until steady state is reached or 60 days, whichever is shorter. Before the start of the clearance phase, the test fish should be transferred to a container of clean water.
7.2.5.2 Sampling and sample preparation
Water samples for analysis should be collected from the middle area of the test tank using an inert material tube according to the siphon principle. The container should be kept as clean as possible and the content of total organic carbon should be tested during the absorption and removal stages. Each time fish samples are taken, an appropriate number of test fish (at least 4) are taken from the test tank, the test fish are quickly rinsed with water, the surface water is sucked dry, and the fish are quickly killed in the most humane way and weighed. Fish and water samples should be determined as soon as possible after collection to avoid degradation or other losses, and the absorption and removal rates should be approximately calculated. When samples cannot be measured immediately, appropriate methods should be used to preserve the samples. The method of preserving the specific test substance, storage time and extraction method should be mastered before the start of the test.
7.2.5.3 Analytical methods
For specific test substances, it is necessary to check the accuracy and reproducibility of the analytical method, as well as the recovery rate of the test substance in water and fish. In addition, the test substance should not be detected in the dilution water. If necessary, the C and C values measured in the test should be corrected. 7.2.5.4 Determination of fish samples
When radioactive labeled substances are used in the test, the total amount of radioactive labeled substances (including parent and metabolites) can be determined, or the parent test substance can be determined separately after washing the sample. The main metabolite can also be identified at steady state or absorption stage (whichever is shorter). If the BCF value obtained based on the total amount of radioactive labeled residues is not less than 1000, it is necessary to identify whether the degradation rate of the total residue of the test substance in the fish tissue at steady state is not less than 10%, especially for special categories of test compounds such as pesticides. If the degradation rate of the total residue of the test substance in the fish tissue is not less than 10%, it is necessary to determine the degradation of the test substance in water. Usually, the content of the test substance in each fish should be determined. If this is not possible, the test fish with the same test concentration should be combined after each sampling, but this will not be able to perform mathematical and statistical analysis. If mathematical statistics are really needed, the sample size (number of test fish) should be fully considered in the experimental design.
BCF values can be expressed as a function of the total wet weight of the test fish or, for highly lipophilic substances, as a function of the fat content of the fish. If possible, the fat content of the fish sample should be determined each time it is sampled. The trichloromethane/methanol extraction method is recommended as the standard method. The results obtained by different test methods will not be exactly the same, so detailed steps of the method used should be given. If possible, the same sample extract should be used for fat determination and test substance determination, because the chromatographic analysis of the test substance determination usually requires the removal of fat. The difference in fat content (expressed in mg/kg wet weight) of the test fish at the end of the test and at the beginning of the test should not exceed ± 25%. The dry weight of the fish tissue should be reported to understand the ratio of fat content converted from wet weight to dry weight.
8 Quality Assurance and Quality Control
An effective test shall meet the following conditions: a) Temperature fluctuation is less than ±2°C;
6) Dissolved oxygen concentration is not less than 60% of the air saturation value; c) The phototransformation of the test object under the test lighting conditions is controlled, and ultraviolet radiation less than 290Hm is filtered out to avoid the test fish from being exposed to abnormal photochemical products;
d) During the absorption period, the concentration of the test object in the test container is maintained within the range of ±20% of the measured average value; e) Until the end of the test, the mortality rate or other adverse effects or diseases of the control and test group fish are less than 10%. When the test is extended for several weeks or months, the mortality rate or other adverse effects of the test fish in the two groups should be less than 5% per month and not more than 30% during the whole process.
9 Data and Report
9.1 Data Processing
Plot the concentration of the test substance in the fish body (or specific tissue of the fish body) against time on the coordinate paper to form a curve. If the curve has reached a stable state, that is, it has become an approximate asymptote with respect to the time axis, use formula (1) to calculate the biological control factor (BCFu) of the stable state:
Where:
C—-the average concentration of the test substance in the fish body tissue; C,—-the average concentration of the test substance in the test solution. C
When the stable state is not reached, the BCFs value of 80% or 95% of the stable state can also be calculated. (1
The kinetic enrichment factor (BCFx) can also be determined by the ratio of the absorption rate constant K, of a first-order exponential equation, and the elimination rate constant K, which is usually determined by an elimination curve (i.e., a line plotting the concentration of the substance in the fish body against time). The absorption rate constant K, can be calculated based on the given K value and the C value from the absorption curve, see Appendix E for details. A better way to obtain BCF: and K, K. is to use nonlinear parameter estimation software, otherwise the graphical method can be used to calculate K1 and K, values. If the elimination curve is obviously not a first-order exponential equation, more complex methods (see Appendix C) and biostatistical methods should be used. 9.2 Test report
