National Technical Reports Library

The National Technical Information Service acquires, indexes, abstracts, and archives the largest collection of U.S. government-sponsored technical reports in existence. The NTRL offers online, free and open access to these authenticated government technical reports. Technical reports and documents in its repository may be available online for free either from the issuing federal agency, the U.S. Government Publishing Office’s Federal Digital System website, or through search engines.

Acute Toxicity of Santicizer 160 to the Midge Paratanytarsus Parthenogenetica with Cover Letter.

OTS0206416

Publication Date	1983
Page Count	2131
Abstract	The purpose of this study is to determine the acute toxicity of Santicizers 160 (S-160) to the midge, Paratanytarsus parthenogenetica. This midge is considered a valid representative of the Benthic Community and recent published reports have used P. parthenogenetica to judge the safety of given chemicals to benthic organisms (1, 2). Toxicological information together with an estimate of environmental exposure concentration can be used to evaluate the potential environmental hazard of a chemical resulting from manufacture, use and disposal.
