Role of Models in Predicting Toxicity Criteria against Arsenic Toxicity Test Exposed to Therapon Jarbua (Forsskal, 1775)
Abstract: Prediction of safe concentration, no-effect concentration for reduced animal usage in chronic toxicity test was attempted as well as to create a toxicity criteria limit for arsenic using Therapon jarbua in static renewal acute toxicity test. The LC50 value derived was 3.95 (3.43–4.58) mg/L arsenic. The derived LC50 was applied for prediction of safe concentration leading to a value of 39.5 µg/L. The raw survival and mortality data was fed …
