5.1 Responses that reflect oxygen consumption or utilization have often been targeted as useful indicators of incipient toxic conditions (26, 27, 28, 29, 30). In addition, sustained acute fish ventilatory behavioral responses reflect a physiological change in the organism and therefore might have ecological relevance.5.2 For some time, the technological means have been available to log and display ventilatory signals over time. As a result, there are a considerable number of studies which examined ventilatory behavior of fish and other aquatic organisms. A large number of substances at lethal levels have been shown to elicit ventilatory responses relatively quickly (13, 19, 20, 31, 32, 33, 34). For many pollutants, a significant response was often generated in less than 1 h of exposure to concentrations approaching the 96 h LC50. Studies performed using subacutely toxic samples of effluents or individual pollutants (concentrations well below the reported LC50 concentration), often documented responses within 1 to 10 h of exposure (11, 18, 21, 30, 35, 36) .5.3 Given the data obtained thus far, it appears that fish ventilatory behavior may be a very sensitive and rapid indicator of acute toxicity if various aspects of this behavior (that is, rate and amplitude) are assessed and analyzed simultaneously. It appears that the more aspects of ventilatory behavior that are assessed, the more sensitive and rapid the system is (11, 12, 21, 22).5.4 Although a variety of organisms have been examined including crayfish (37), aquatic insect larvae (31), and bivalves (13), most research in aquatic ventilatory behavior has used freshwater fish species. This is largely because fish are generally more ecologically “visible” in their importance in aquatic systems and many species (particularly the salmonids and centrarchids) have large opercular flaps that yield relatively clear ventilatory signals for measurement and evaluation. Species eliciting relatively small bioelectric ventilatory signals are more difficult to use given the electrode and amplification systems referenced in this guide.5.5 Changes in ventilatory behavior have been shown to be a reliable indicator of accidental toxic spills or “slugs” of pollutants in wastewater and drinking water systems (15, 20, 23, 24, 33).1.1 This guide covers information on methods to measure and interpret ventilatory behavioral responses of freshwater fish to contaminants.1.2 Ventilatory responses are often some of the first prelethal symptoms exhibited by animals to environmental stressors (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10).2 Continued, abnormal ventilatory behavior (that is, rapid or shallow breathing, erratic breathing) can indicate physiological damage that may be irreversible. Such damage could eventually result in decreased survival, growth, or reproduction of the organism, or all of these.1.3 Ventilatory responses of some fish species can be measured relatively easily and quickly, providing a useful tool for biomonitoring studies of wastewaters, pure chemicals, surface water, and ground water.1.4 Appropriate studies of ventilatory responses can yield definitive endpoints such as no observable effect concentration (NOEC) or an EC50, often more rapidly than standard toxicity test methods (11, 12).1.5 The mode of action of test substances and the type of chemical toxicant can be determined by examining ventilatory behavioral responses in conjunction with other physiological responses (8, 9, 10, 11, 12).1.6 Fish ventilatory behavior can be assessed in real-time using appropriate computer hardware and software (12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19) . Such systems have proved useful for long-term, on-line monitoring of wastewater effluents, pure chemicals, and surface waters (12, 15, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25) . These systems are usually technically complex and will not be discussed in this guide.1.7 Given the technological constraints of electrical components, it is currently not feasible to monitor bioelectric signals, such as those elicited in ventilatory behavior, in saline (>2 ppt) or high conductivity (>3000 μmhos/cm) water using the procedures discussed in this guide. Therefore, this guide is restricted to the testing of freshwater matrices.1.8 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.
