Overview
Abstract The use of autochthonous zooplankton species, along with standardized protocols, ensures the reliability and reproducibility of ecotoxicological assays, enabling the anticipation and more efficient diagnosis of the harmful effects of toxic agentes in aquatic environments. The objective of this study was to evaluate the viability of laboratory cultivation of Ceriodaphnia cornuta under physical and chemical conditions similar to those of freshwater environments in a semiarid region, aiming to minimize uncertainties regarding the adaptability of test organisms in ecotoxicological assays with environmental samples. To this end, individuals of the species C. cornuta were collected from reservoirs in a semiarid region of Brazil. Subsequently, experiments were conducted with acute and chronic exposures, using different values of pH, hardness, temperature, and luminosity, based on the averages found in aquatic environments of semiarid regions and those suggested by standardized norms. Ceriodaphnia cornuta showed the highest survival and reproduction rates in water with a pH between 7.5 and 7.9, hardness of 66mg CaCO3.L-1, temperature of 25 °C ±2, and luminosity between 3000 to 3500 lux, these values are above those standardized by the Brazilian standard, demonstrating a potential viability of its cultivation under conditions similar to those of neotropical semiarid regions for use as a test organism in quality analyses of these environments. Resumo A utilização de espécies zooplanctônicas autóctones, aliada a protocolos padronizados, garante a confiabilidade e a reprodutibilidade dos ensaios ecotoxicológicos, possibilitando a antecipação e o diagnóstico mais eficiente dos efeitos nocivos de agentes tóxicos em ambientes aquáticos. O objetivo deste estudo foi avaliar a viabilidade do cultivo laboratorial de Ceriodaphnia cornuta em condições físicas e químicas semelhantes às de ambientes de água doce em região semiárida, visando minimizar as incertezas quanto à adaptabilidade dos organismos-teste em ensaios ecotoxicológicos com amostras ambientais. Para tanto, indivíduos da espécie C. cornuta foram coletados em reservatórios de uma região semiárida do Brasil. Posteriormente, foram conduzidos experimentos com exposições agudas e crônicas, utilizando diferentes valores de pH, dureza, temperatura e luminosidade, com base nas médias encontradas em ambientes aquáticos de regiões semiáridas e naquelas sugeridas por normas padronizadas. C. cornuta apresentou as maiores taxas de sobrevivência e reprodução em água com pH entre 7.5 e 7.9, dureza de 66mg CaCO3.L-1, temperatura de 25 °C ±2 e luminosidade entre 3000 a 3500 lux. Esses resultados demonstraram uma potencial viabilidade de seu cultivo em condições semelhantes às das regiões semiáridas neotropicais para uso como organismo teste em análises de qualidade desses ambientes.
