Multigeneration effects of insect growth regulators on the springtail Folsomia candida
Open accessAbstract
Multigeneration tests are very useful for the assessment of long term toxicity of pollutants such as endocrine disruptor compounds. In this study, multigeneration reproduction tests adapted from the ISO standard 11267 were conducted with the Collembola Folsomia candida. Springtails were exposed to artificial soil contaminated with four insect growth regulators (methoprene, fenoxycarb, teflubenzuron, and precocene II) according to two different experimental set-ups. In the first set-up, the parental generation (F(0)) of Collembola was exposed to a pollutant for 28 days. Juveniles from the F(1) generation were transferred to uncontaminated soil for another 28-day period to generate the F(2) generation. In the second set-up, the F(0) generation was exposed to a pollutant for 10 days before being transferred to uncontaminated soil to reproduce. After 18-28 days, juveniles from the F(1) were transferred to clean soil to generate the F(2) generation. An effect on the number of hatched juveniles of the F(2) generation was observed for methoprene after exposure of the F(0) for 28 days and hatching of F(1) in contaminated soil. For methoprene and teflubenzuron, significant effects were even observed on the F(2) generation with the second experimental set-up, when only the F(0) generation was exposed for 10 days. This shows that the impact of these substances is transgenerational, which can have important consequences for the population of these or other organisms. No effect on the F(2) generation was observed with fenoxycarb and precocene II with the 10-day exposure experiment. Our results show that the developed experimental procedures are appropriate to assess the long term effects of endocrine disrupting compounds on the reproduction of the non-target species F. candida. Another important finding is that two substances with the same predicted mode of action (i.e., the two juvenile hormone analogues fenoxycarb and methoprene) do not necessarily affect the same endpoints in F. candida.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
