摘要

Recent identification of 6PPD‐quinone as the chemical causing acute toxicity in coho salmon has led to substantial concern regarding the toxicity of this contaminant for other aquatic species. Environmental occurrence of 6PPD‐quinone is probably high, because it is an oxidation product of a common tire rubber additive. Research on 6PPD‐quinone toxicity in fish has revealed a rather unusual pattern, with closely related species exhibiting responses ranging from extreme sensitivity to no effect. Of 11 previously studied fish species, 6PPD‐quinone was toxic to four. The species‐specific toxicity of 6PPDquinone complicates urgently needed environmental risk assessment. We investigated the acute toxicity of 6PPD‐quinone in Atlantic salmon and brown trout alevins (sac fry). These species have previously not been tested for sensitivity to 6PPDquinone. The fish were exposed in static conditions in eight treatments with initial concentrations ranging from 0.095 to 12.16 μg/L. Fish were observed for 48 h, and changes in concentrations of 6PPD‐quinone were monitored throughout the experiment. No mortalities or substantial changes in behavior were recorded in either Atlantic salmon or brown trout. This provides an important first step in assessing effects of 6PPD‐quinone on these economically and culturally highly important species.
