Influence of benzene on the phytoplankton and on Daphnia pulex in compartments of an experimental pond.

Ecotoxicol. Environ. Saf. 10, 218-227 (1985)
DOI
Benzene, with initial concentrations of 100 and 50 mg per liter, was dosed in duplicates into four compartments of a small pond. The decrease of chemical concentration in the water was exponential with a mean half-life of 4.7 ± 0.9 days. Following benzene application, the phytoplankton density and diversity slightly increased relative to the controls. Both concentrations were lethal for the daphnids present. During 24-hr in vitro tests with Daphnia pulex (initial benzene concentrations <50 mg per liter), a direct correlation between mobility and decreasing chemical concentration was observed.
