AB  - Polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) are new kinds of persistent organic 
      pollutants (POPs) and their potential threats to the equilibrium and 
      sustainability of marine ecosystems have raised worldwide concerns. Here, two 
      kinds of PBDEs, tetra-BDE (BDE-47) and deca-BDE (BDE-209) were applied, and their 
      toxic effects on the swimming behavior, population growth and reproduction of 
      Brachionus plicatilis were investigated. The results showed that: (1) The actual 
      concentrations of BDE-47 and -209 in the seawater phase measured by GC-MS (Gas 
      Chromatography-Mass Spectrometer) were much lower than their nominal 
      concentrations. (2) In accordance with the 24-hr acute tests, BDE-209 did not 
      show any obvious swimming inhibition to rotifers, but a good correlation did 
      exist between the swimming inhibition rate and BDE-47 concentration suggesting 
      that BDE-47 is more toxic than BDE-209. (3) Both BDE-47 and -209 had a 
      significant influence on the population growth and reproduction parameters of B. 
      plicatilis including the population growth rate, the ratio of ovigerous 
      females/non-ovigerous females (OF/NOF), the ratio of mictic females/amictic 
      females (MF/AF), resting egg production and the mictic rate, which indicate that 
      these parameters in B. plicatilis population were suitable for monitoring and 
      assessing PBDEs. Our results suggest that BDE-47 and -209 are not acute lethal 
      toxicants and may pose a low risk to marine rotifers at environmental 
      concentrations for short-term exposure. They also accumulate differently into 
      rotifers. Further research data are needed to understand the mechanisms 
      responsible for the effects caused by PBDEs and to assess their risks accurately.
