In the paper, it was shown that this chemical inhibited the reproduction rate and abundance of the cells of this species of marine phytoplankton. Non-ionic surfactants are the key components of many detergents and other chemical mixture products that are being produced in big quantities and used on large scale.

In the presence of 0.1 mg/l TX the cell density in the culture was markedly lower than in the control culture. In the presence of 1 mg/l TX the decrease in cell density exceeded 50%. The decrease in the specific growth rate was about 10% in the presence of 0.1 mg/l TX and about 40% in the presence of 1 mg/l TX (over a period of seven days). The diatom sensitivity to TX was higher than that of some red and green algae and chrysophytes, as well as that of starfish spermatozoa and plant seedlings to TX or similar surfactants. These data reveal some more aspects of the ecological danger of aquatic pollution by non-ionogenic surfactants.

Innovative conceptualization of ecosystem’s biomachinery (a new scientific term that was proposed by the author; it means ecological mechanisms that include biological communities and biodiversity) which improves water quality. The innovative experimental data analysis, concepts, and generalizations in this article provide the fundamental elements of the new qualitative theory of biocontrol of water quality in a systematized form. The theory covers water self-purification in freshwater and marine ecosystems. The theory is supported by the results of the author’s experimental studies of the effects exerted by some chemical pollutants including synthetic surfactants, detergents, and other xenobiotics on aquatic organisms. The new fundamental conceptualization provides a basis for remediation of polluted aquatic ecosystems including purification of water bodies and streams, and briefly present the qualitative theory of the self-purification mechanism of aquatic ecosystems, phytoremediation and other types of technologies.

INTRODUCTION. The concept of ecosystem health became popular now. What is ecosystem health in case of aquatic ecosystems (reservoirs, rivers, lakes, seas, estuaries)? To answer this question, there are a lot of factors to be taken into consideration. Previously, one of them was ignored. However, this factor became more visible after the works of the Fulbright Award winner, Dr. S.A. Ostroumov (M.V. Lomonosov Moscow State University). 2. DISCOVERY. This factor is the ability of a healthy ecosystem to improve and maintain water quality, in other words, to perform self-purification of water. The main features of water self-purification were discovered, described and put into a system by Dr. S. Ostroumov in his publications of 1998 – 2010 [1-9]. 3. ADDITIONAL USEFUL BIBLIOGRAPHY. In addition to above-mentioned English papers, this author published some articles in Russian [10-15]. Moreover, he covered the various aspects of self-purification in his books of 2004 -2008 [16-18]. Additional discussion of his publications is given at the sites [19-21]. 4. CONCLUSION. These publications developed a new well-structured theory of water self-purification. In conclusion, the analysis of current literature demonstrated that the ecosystem health of aquatic - freshwater, estuarine, marine - ecosystems includes the ability of the biological community to purify water (to perform water self-purification). The modern theory of water self-purification was developed by Fulbright Award winner Dr. S. A. Ostroumov in his papers and books. 5.
