For the first time, oysters were used as the test-organisms in bioassay of synthetic surfactants. As surfactants are one of key components of water pollution from municipal waste waters, from ports and ships, the new data revealed a novel type of hazard to aquaculture (aqua-farming, mariculture) of oysters. New negative effects of several amphiphilic chemicals (surfactants) and chemical mixtures (synthetic detergents, laundry detergents, dish-washing liquid) on oysters and other marine bivalves were discovered. An anionic surfactant, sodium dodecylsulfate (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 oysters Crassostrea gigasand marine mussels Mytilusgalloprovincialis. The mixture products tested were: the synthetic detergents, laundry detergentsSD1(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 ecotoxicants, 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.

For the first time, oysters were used as the test-organisms in bioassay of synthetic surfactants. As surfactants are one of key components of water pollution from municipal waste waters, from ports and ships, the new data revealed a novel type of hazard to aquaculture (aqua-farming, mariculture) of oysters. New negative effects of several amphiphilic chemicals (surfactants) and chemical mixtures (synthetic detergents, laundry detergents, dish-washing liquid) on oysters and other marine bivalves were discovered. An anionic surfactant, sodium dodecylsulfate (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 oysters Crassostrea gigasand marine mussels Mytilusgalloprovincialis. The mixture products tested were: the synthetic detergents, laundry detergentsSD1(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.).
