In this study, we investigated whether Batatasin III is carried by runoff into streams and lakes during the snowmelt period and whether it is also potentially hazardous to aquatic fauna. The maximum concentration of Batatasin III found was 1.06 mg l(-1). The proportion of dead yolk sac alevins increased significantly (P <0.001) with increasing concentrations of Batatasin III and time of exposure. After 24 hr, EC50 was 10 mg l(-1). It was 2 mg l(-1) after 48 hr. The effect of phenol was negligible, indicating a specific phytotoxic effect of the bibenzyl structure of Batatasin III. The proportion of mobile D. magna became significantly smaller (P <0.001) with increasing concentrations of Batatasin III, with decreasing pH, and with increasing exposure time. EC50 varied between 7 and 17 mg l(-1) at pH 5.5 and 7.0, respectively. After 24 hr EC50 decreased and was 2.5 at pH 5.5 and 12 mg l(-1) at pH 7.0. The levels of Batatasin III found in the field samples were below the lowest EC50 in acute toxicity tests[1]
