Název v původním jazyce

Assessing the effects of Tropical Wood Leachate to Desmodesmus subspicatus, Lemna minor and Daphnia magna

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

Ghana has a long history as a major supplier of high-value hardwood timber and wood products to many countries. The research seeks to assess the effects of tropical wood leachates to aquatic organisms. Hence, five wood samples were selected; Mahogany (Khaya ivorensis), Cedrela (Cedrela odorata), Emire (Terminalia ivorensis), Wawa (Triplochiton scleroxylon) and Ceiba (Ceiba pendandra) from Oboyow forest reserve in Eastern Region Ghana to assess their toxicity to aquatic organisms. Toxicity tests: Algal (Desmodesmus subspicatus) Duckweed (Lemna minor) and crustacean (Daphnia magna) were carried out using exposures to concentrations of 20, 30, 45, 67 and 100% v/v wood leachate in control media. The high levels of phenols measured in the various wood leachates was the main cause of toxicity. The percentage median Inhibition Concentration (%IC50) of the various wood leachate, ranged from 21.5-55.6% with mahogany exhibiting the highest toxicity and wawa the lowest. All the wood leachates were toxic to the aquatic organisms. The %IC50 showed both confirmed and potential toxicity among the various wood leachates and established that there was significant difference between various wood leachate toxicity.
