Nanotoxicity data for amphibians are limited compared to other taxonomic groups. The present study assessed toxicity of titanium dioxide nanoparticles (nanoTiO2, anatase form, particle size < 25 nm) on tadpoles of Duttaphrynus melanostictus after short term and chronic exposures. Exposure to nanoTiO2 (≤ 100 mg/L) for 96 h had no significant effect on survival but upon transfer to nanoTiO2 free water for another 21 days, survival of the tadpoles pre-exposed to nanoTiO2 was greatly reduced and their development was delayed. Chronic exposure to nanoTiO2 (0.1 to 10 mg/L) for 14 days had no significant effects on acetylcholinesterase activities but induced mortalities (up to 40%) and histological alterations in the intestine and liver tissues. The results indicate that release of nanoTiO2 to aquatic ecosystems could pose negative impacts to amphibian populations.

短期和慢性暴露后二氧化钛纳米颗粒对亚洲普通蟾蜍 (Duttaphrynus melanostictus) 蝌蚪的毒性

与其他分类群相比,两栖动物的纳米毒性数据有限。二氧化钛纳米颗粒的本研究评估毒性(nanoTiO 2上的蝌蚪,锐钛矿形式,粒度<25纳米)黑眶蟾蜍短期和长期暴露后。暴露于nanoTiO 2 (≤ 100 mg/L) 96 h 对存活没有显着影响,但转移到无纳米TiO 2 的水中再过21 天,预先暴露于nanoTiO 2的蝌蚪的存活率大大降低,它们的发育延迟。长期暴露于 nanoTiO 2(0.1 至 10 mg/L) 14 天对乙酰胆碱酯酶活性没有显着影响,但会导致死亡率(高达 40%)和肠和肝组织的组织学改变。结果表明,纳米TiO 2释放到水生生态系统可能对两栖动物种群造成负面影响。
