Abstract:
:The dissolved uptake rate constant (k(u)), dietary assimilation efficiency (AE), and efflux rate constant (k(e)) of cadmium (Cd) and zinc (Zn) were quantified in a freshwater zooplankton Daphnia magna cultured at different ambient calcium (Ca) concentrations. The animals were first acclimated to different ambient Ca levels for 7 d from birth before the biokinetic measurements at corresponding Ca levels. With increasing ambient Ca level from 0.5 to 200 mg/L, the body Ca content increased from 0.91% (as tissue dry wt) to 3.75%. The k(u) for Cd decreased by nine times; for Zn it decreased by 2.6 times; and the AE decreased from 62 to 19% and from 46 to 24% for Cd and Zn, respectively. In contrast, Ca levels did not affect significantly the efflux rates of Cd and Zn. The effects of ambient and body Ca levels were separated by measuring the biokinetic parameters in both low--(0.5 mg/L) and high--(50 mg/L) Ca environments using the daphnids containing different body Ca levels. Ambient and body Ca levels had synergistic inhibitory effects on the AEs of Cd and Zn; however, the protective effects against dissolved uptake of Cd and Zn were explained fully by the effects of ambient Ca. The body Ca either had no significant effect (for Cd) or stimulative effects (for Zn). Multiphase biokinetic modeling using the measured parameters gave reasonable predictions of the body burdens of Cd and Zn in different Ca environments. Our results better explain the role of ambient and body Ca in the accumulation of Cd and Zn in D. magna.
