چکیده انگلیسی
The effects of Cr(III) and Cr(VI) on the survival, behavior, and morphology of the earthworm, Eisenia fetida, in water at pH 6, 7, and 8 and their toxicity in 10 different soils and an organic substrate have been assessed. A decrease in the pH of water resulted in increased toxicity of Cr to the earthworm. In water, both Cr species produced behavioral changes and morphological symptoms. The 48-h LC50 values of Cr(III) at pH 6, 7, and 8 were 1.93, 2.55, and 2.78Â mg/L, and those of Cr(VI) were 0.47, 0.61, and 0.63Â mg/L, respectively. The 14-day median lethal concentrations (LC50) of Cr(III) and Cr(VI) for earthworm range from 1656 to 1902Â mg/kg for Cr(III) and from 222 to 257Â mg/kg for Cr(VI) in soil. In the organic substrate, the LC50 values of Cr(III) and Cr(VI) were 1635 and 219Â mg/kg, respectively. Stepwise multiple regression analysis predicted that clay content of soils accounted for 92% and 88% of the variation in the LC50 values of Cr(III) and Cr(VI), respectively.
