✦ Synopsis

Influence of Temperature on the Toxicity of Phenol and its Chloroand Nitro-derivatives to the Fish _-otoptevus notopterus (PALLAY) Sunti)tary: There is det,erniined t,he LC,, for 24 ... 96 h of phenol. 2.4-dinitrophenol and pentaclilorophenol as sodium salt by static assay at) water t,eniperat'ures of 16, 23 and 3 6 O C . In addition. the conibinations of t,he three substances were t,ested in the saine nay. With decreasing temperat,ure, the toxicity of t'lie individual substances decreased by 6.5 ... 22 '';I. t>hat of the inixt'ures by 10 ... 87 I:',,; with rising temperature, the toxicity increased by 38 ... 747 and 75 ... 744 O 0 , respectively. The safety limits at' 23 "C lie between 0.3 pg/1 for a synergistically acting niixt>ure and 0.9 mg/l for an antagonist,ically act,ing one; for t,he individual substances this range is 3.5 +g/l t o 0.5 nig/!.
