Introduction
The three parts of IS0 7346 describe methods of determining the acute
lethal toxicity of substances to the zebra fish (Brachydanio rerio
Hamilton-Buchanan) but it must be emphasized that the recommended
use of the zebra fish does not preclude the use of other species. The
methodologies presented here may also be used for other species of
freshwater, marine or brackish water fish, with appropriate modifications
of, for example, dilution water quality and the temperature conditions of
the test.
Within the three parts of IS0 7346, a choice can be made between static,
semi-static and flow-through methods” The static test, described in
IS0 7346-1, in which the solution is not renewed, has the advantage of
requiring simple apparatus, although the substances in the test vessel may
iTeh STANDARD PREVIEW
become depleted during the course of the test and the general quality of
the water may deteriorate. The flow-through method, described in
(standards.iteh.ai)
IS0 7346-3, in which the test solution is replenished continuously, over-
comes such problems but requires the use of more complex apparatus.
In the semi-static procedure, described in this part of IS0 7346, the test

mise between the other two.

The flow-through method can be used for most types of substances, in-
cluding those unstable in water, but the concentrations of the test sub-
stance are determined wherever possible. The static method is limited to
the study of substances whose tested concentrations remain relatively
constant during the test period. The semi-static method can be used for
testing those substances whose concentrations can be maintained satis-
factorily throughout the test by renewal of the solutions every 24 h or
48 h. Special arrangements may be necessary for substances which are
highly volatile.
To assist in the preparation and maintenance of concentrations of sub-
stances which may be lethal at concentrations close to that of their
aqueous solubility, a small volume of solvent may be used, as specified in
the methods.
