Ostroumov S.А., Widdows J. Inhibition of mussel suspension feeding by surfactants of three classes // Hydrobiologia. 2006. Vol. 556, No. 1. Pages: 381 – 386. Effects of SDS, TDTMA, and Triton X-100 on M. edulis and M. edulis / M. galloprovincialis. Effects of three surfactants on the filtration rates by marine mussels were studied. The xenobiotics tested represented anionic, cationic and non-ionic surfactants (tetradecyltrimethylammonium bromide, a representative of a class of cationic surfactants; sodium dodecyl sulphate, a representative of anionic alkyl sulfates; and Triton X-100, a representative of non-ionic hydroxyethylated alkyl phenols). All three surfactants inhibited the clearance rates. The significance of the results for the ecology of marine ecosystems is discussed].

A new fundamental principle was proved in the paper: to maintain the water quality, it is necessary to protect the functionally active biodiversity of water ecosystems. In other words, protection of the functionally active biodiversity of aquatic organisms in a water body is a method (and an indispensable one) of maintenance of water quality in this ecosystem. Also, the author reports new experimental data on how detergents inhibited filtration activity of marine bivalves, mussels Mytilus galloprovincialis, and oysters Crassostrea gigas. The following issues and items were considered in the paper: feedbacks; Crassostrea gigas; oysters; Mytilus galloprovincialis; mussels; marine bivalves; filtration activity; inhibition; detergents; maintenance of water quality; water body; aquatic organisms; protection; water ecosystems; functionally active biodiversity; water quality; biological sciences; ecosystems; bivalves; laundry detergent IXI; laundry detergent Deni-Automat; aquaculture; mariculture; freshwater; marine water bodies; pelagial Protista; infusoria; heterotrophic Protista; Rotatoria; Coelenterata; Rhizistomida; Nemertini; plankton; Mastigophora; Polychaeta; Sipunculoidea; Phoronoidea; Brachiopoda; Bryozoa; larvae; nekton; Cladocera; Copepoda; Insecta; Pisces; molluscs; copepods; Cirripedia; Echinodermata; Hemichorda; Euphausiida; Mysida; Decapoda; Macrura; Tunicata; Appendiculariae; Salpae; Pyrosomida; Benthal Protista; Ctenophora; attached ctenophors Tjalfiella; Spongia; benthos; Porifera; Mollusca; Bivalvia; Diptera; Trichoptera; mayflies; Hydrozoa; Actinozoa; Gorgonaria; Pennatularia; Actinaria; Metridium; Kamptozoa; Entoprocta; Phoronida; Sipunculida; Pterobranchia; Acrania; Gastropoda; Amphipoda; Corophiidae; Crinoidea; Ophiuroidea; Asteroidea; Brisingidae; Holothuroidea; Psolus; Ascidiae.

The theory covers the following items: (1) sources of energy for self-purification mechanisms, (2) the main structural and functional units of the water self-purification biomachinery, (3) the main processes involved, (4) contributions of major taxa (groups of organisms) to self-purification, (5) system reliability, (6) the response of the system as a whole to external factors (esp. chemical pollution by xenobiotics including both organic and inorganic pollutants), (7) particulars of the operation of water purification mechanisms, and (8) conclusions and recommendations for biodiversity protection practice, and for sustainable use of water and biological resources. The theory was supported by new author’s experiments and recent publications.

Микрокосмы с макрофитами изучали в лабораторных экспериментах. исследовали воздействие додецилсульфата натрия (ДСН) на макрофиты. Регистрировали выживаемость и вес биомассы макрофитов в условиях длительной инкубации. ДСН вносили в форме неоднократных (повторяющихся, рекуррентных) добавок. Количество ДСН, внесенное в 1 дм3 после каждой добавки составляло: 0,5, 0,8, 1,7, 8,3, 16,7, 50,0 и 100,0 мг. Длительность периода выживания растений снижалась при увеличении количества ДСН, вносимого в одной добавке. Если количество вносимого ДСН (в одной добавке) увеличивали в 200 раз (с 0,5 до 100 мг/л), то период выживания снизился в 53 раза (с 372 до 7 дней). В присутствии ДСН произошло некоторое снижение биомассы макрофитов. Степень снижения биомассы зависела от суммарного количества внесенного ДСН. Solomonova E.A., Ostroumov S.A. Effects of sodium dodecyl sulphate on the biomass of macrophytes Najas guadelupensis L. / / Toksikologicheskiy Vestnik. 2009. Number 2. P.32-35. Bibliogr.10 refs. Microcosms with the macrophytes were studied in laboratory experiments. The effects of sodium dodecyl sulphate (SDS) on macrophytes were studied . The survival and weight of the biomass of macrophytes in a prolonged incubation were recorded. SDS was added in the form of repeated (recurrent) additives. The increase in the amount of SDS after each addition was: 0,5, 0,8, 1,7, 8,3, 16,7, 50,0 and 100,0 mg in 1 dm3. Duration of survival of plants decreased with increasing amount of SDS in one addition. If the amount of SDS (after a single addition) increased 200 times (from 0.5 to 100 mg / l), the period of survival decreased 53-fold (from 372 up to 7 days). In the presence of SDS, a decrease in macrophyte biomass was observed. The degree of the reduction of biomass depended on the total amount of SDS added to the microcosms.
