| Resumo: |
Bioassays with two marine nematode species were used to determine the toxicity of four heavy metal compounds and three carcinogens. The test using the marine species <i>Diplolaimelloides bruciei</i> is more sensitive than the existing nematode test using the freshwater nematode <i>Panagrellus redivivus</i> for mercury chloride and 2-acetamidofluorene, but less sensitive for methylmercury chloride, phenacetin, and 4-aminobiphenyl. The <i>Monhystera microphthalma</i> test is less sensitive than the nematode test with <i>P. revivus</i> for mercury chloride, selenium oxide, and cesium chloride. The range between the concentrations at which no toxic effects are observed and the concentrations at which 100% lethality is observed is for most compounds smaller in both nematode tests with marine species than in the test using <i>P. revivus</i>.This suggests that the marine analogs of the <i>P. redivivus</i> test are less suited to detect, map, and rank the primary sites and sources of biotoxicity in an ecosystem. Further validation of the nematode tests using <i>D. bruciei</i> and <i>M. microphtalma</i> is required.
