Abstract :

A system is described for determination of LC50 or IC50 by an iterative process based on data obtained from a plate reader using a marine unicellular alga as a target species. The esterase activity of Tetraselmis suesica on fluorescein diacetate as a substrate was measured using a fluorescence titerplate. Simultaneous analysis of results was performed using an iterative process adopting the sigmoid function Y = y/1 (dose of toxicant/IC50)slope for dose-response relationships. IC50 (+/- SEM) was estimated (P less than 0.05). An application with phosalone as a toxicant is presented.
