TI  - Deriving freshwater quality criteria for 2,4-dichlorophenol for protection of 
      aquatic life in China.
PG  - 217-22
AB  - Freshwater quality criteria for 2,4-dichlorophenol (2,4-DCP) were developed with 
      particular reference to the aquatic biota in China, and based on USEPA's 
      guidelines. Acute toxicity tests were performed on nine different domestic 
      species indigenous to China to determine 48-h LC50 and 96-h LC50 values for 
      2,4-DCP. In addition, 21 day survival-reproduction tests with Daphnia magna, 
      30-day embryo-larval tests with Carassius auratus, 60 day fry-juvenile test with 
      Ctenopharyngodon idellus, 30 d early life stage tests with Bufo bufo gargarizans 
      and 96 h growth inhibition tests with Scenedesms obliqaus were conducted, to 
      estimate lower chronic limit (LCL) and upper chronic limit (UCL) values. The 
      final acute value (FAV) was 2.49 mg/l 2,4-DCP. Acute-to-chronic ratios (ACR) 
      ranged from 3.74 to 22.5. The final chronic value (FCV) and the final plant value 
      (FPV) of 2.4-DCP were 0.212 mg/l and 7.07 mg/l respectively. Based on FAV, FCV, 
      and FPV, a criteria maximum concentration (CMC) of 1.25 mg/l and a criterion 
      continuous concentration (CCC) of 0.212 mg/l were derived. The results of this 
      study provide useful data for deriving national or local water quality criteria 
      for 2,4-DCP based on aquatic biota in China.
