| Descripción: | In this study 96 hours LC50 values of zinc sulphate (ZnSO4.H2O); an important toxic industrial pollutant, on Poecilia reticulata were determined. Behavioral changes at different concentrations of zinc sulphate (ZnSO4.H2O) were monitored. The results were evaluated by the Statistical Probit Analysis Method and 96 hours LC50 value for guppies was found to be 30.826 mg/l. The lower and upper confidence limits for the LC50 were 30.387 and 31.280 mg/l, respectively. Key Words: Acute Toxicity, Zinc Sulphate, Bioassay, Poecilia Reticulata. |
