Abstract

Phytotoxicity of Class B aqueous firefighting concentrates, Tridol-S 3%, and Tridol-S 6% to Lemna minor were studied using the parameters such as the frond number, biomass production in terms of dry weight, chlorophyll content and proline accumulation. Decrease in fresh weight, dry weight, and chlorophyll pigments; increase in proline content suggested that both the firefighting concentrates are potentially toxic to L. minor. Relative growth rate (RGR) also showed a similar pattern of toxicity with the corresponding increase in test concentrations of both the compounds. The EC50 values show Tridol-S 3% was more toxic than Tridol-S 6% in terms of frond number and dry weight. From our findings, it is clear that L. minor is highly sensitive to the exposure of firefighting foams, and is suitable for its use as an indicator organism for assessing the aquatic toxicity of aqueous firefighting foams. This study clearly suggests that the migration of Tridol AFFF into aquatic environments is likely to have detrimental effects on the aquatic flora. To the best of our knowledge, this study constitutes the first report on the phytotoxicity of firefighting concentrates, Tridol-S 3% and Tridol-S 6% to Lemna minor L.
