Eighty nine kinds of environmental pollutants were subjected to LC50 test by using small static system at low (10°C), medium (20°C) and high temperatures (30°C). Permissible volume of various dissolvents was determined at 30°C and 10% ether-dimethylsulfoxide solution was chosen as a suitable dissolvent for water-insoluble pollutants. Effects of temperature on the acute toxicity of various pollutants for fish were observed and categorized into four groups. First group: The acute toxicity for fish is not influenced by alterations in temperature. Second group: The acute toxicity for fish is the strongest at medium temperature (20°C). Third group: The acute toxicity for fish increased with a decrease in temperature. Fourth group: The acute toxicity for fish increased with an increase in temperature. © 1986, The Pharmaceutical Society of Japan. All rights reserved.
