Survival and reproduction tests using springtails reveal weathered petroleum hydrocarbon soil toxicity in boreal ecozone

Survival and reproduction tests were conducted using two native springtail (subclass: Collembola) species to determine the toxicity of a fine-grained ( nC 10 to nC 16 ) was measured at 8400 mg/kg and Fraction 3 (> nC 16 to nC 34 ) at 4250 mg/kg in the contaminated soil. Age-synchronized colonies...

Zusammenfassung:Survival and reproduction tests were conducted using two native springtail (subclass: Collembola) species to determine the toxicity of a fine-grained ( nC 10 to nC 16 ) was measured at 8400 mg/kg and Fraction 3 (> nC 16 to nC 34 ) at 4250 mg/kg in the contaminated soil. Age-synchronized colonies of Folsomia candida and Proisotoma minuta were subject to 0%, 25%, 50%, 75%, and 100% relative contamination mixtures of the PHC-contaminated and background site soil (
