• Short summary: For the first time, marine bivalve mollusks, oysters (Crassostrea gigas), were used as the test-organisms in bioassay of synthetic surfactants and detergents, which may pollute seas, oceans and estuaries. The new data revealed a novel type of environmental hazard, and a new type of hazards to aquaculture of shellfish. New negative effects of surfactants and chemical mixtures (detergents, washing liquids and products) on water filtering activity of Crassostrea gigas were discovered.

• ABSTRACT: Effects of amphiphilic chemicals on filter-feeding marine organisms. S.A.Ostroumov:  For the first time, oysters were used as the test-organisms in bioassay of synthetic surfactants and detergents. Surfactants and detergents are one of key components of water pollution from municipal waste waters, from ports and ships, from industry and mining. The new data revealed a novel type of environmental hazards. New negative effects of several amphiphilic chemicals (surfactants) and chemical mixtures on oysters and other marine bivalves were discovered. These chemicals pose hazards to aquaculture of  oysters. An anionic surfactant, sodium dodecylsulphate (SDS), and a cationic surfactant, tetradecyltrimethylammonium bromide (TDTMA) inhibited water filtering activity of oysters (Crassostrea gigas). Similar effects were exhibited by some chemical mixture products (detergents) that included surfactants as components of the mixtures. Those mixture products inhibited filtering activity by bivalve mollusks, oysters Crassostrea gigas and mussels Mytilus galloprovincialis. The mixture products tested were: the laundry detergents SD1(L), Lanza-automat  (Benckiser); SD2(I), IXI Bio-Plus (Cussons); LD1 (E), dish washing liquid E (Cussons International, Ltd.); and LD2 (F), dish washing liquid Fairy (Procter & Gamble, Ltd.). The new results are in agreement with the author’s previous experiments, where a number of xenobiotics and/or pollutants inhibited the filtering activity of several species of marine and freshwater bivalves. The filtering activity contributes to improving water quality. This experimental approach is helpful in assessment of environmental hazard from man-made chemicals that contaminate marine ecosystems.
