Influence of survival time on the lethal body burden of 2,3,4,5-tetrachloroaniline in the guppy, Poecilia reticulata.
The lethal body burden (LBB) of 2,3,4,5-tetrachloroaniline in guppy (Poecilia reticulata), exposed for up to 14 days, has been determined at different aqueous concentrations of the test compound. It was found that the LBB is not constant during these 14 days, declining within the first 48 h to an approximately constant value. It is concluded that LBBs of organic compounds may not always be constant and may depend on survival time.
