Table 1.

Results of ecotoxicological assay with microcrustacean Daphnia pulex of RR198, RB214, RB21 and MXD before and after fungal treatment with P. simplicissimum at the end of 14 days of incubation.

Samples EC50 % CI 95% Classification
RR198 30.8 27.2-34.8 Minor acutely toxic
P. simplicissimum in RR198 9.5 8.6-10.4 Moderately acutely toxic
RB214 31.4 26.4-37.4 Minor acutely toxic
P. simplicissimum in RB214 34.8 28.8-42.1 Minor acutely toxic
RB21 1.1 NR Moderately acutely toxic
P. simplicissimum in RB21 20.3 17.9-23.0 Minor acutely toxic
Mixture MXD 42.2 30.4-58.5 Minor acutely toxic
P. simplicissimum in MXD 49.8 41.4-59.9 Minor acutely toxic

Note: EC50 – Effective Concentration; EC50<1 – Acutely toxic; EC50= 1-10% – Moderately acutely toxic; EC50= 10-100% – Minor acutely toxic; EC50>100% – Not acutely toxic.

CI 95% – 95 % Confidence Intervals.

NR – not reliable.
