| Abstract | We appraised organ-specific toxicokinetics and dose responses of arsenic burdens in tilapia Oreochromis mossambicus. We kinetically linked an Area-under-the-curve (AUC)–based acute toxicity model and a pharmacodynamic model to derive dose–response relationships between equilibrium organ-specific arsenic concentrations and mortality effects. The AUC-based acute toxicity model was also used to derive organ-specific internal effect concentration (IEC)–time-response relationships, which can also be applied to predict a time–mortality profile. We conducted a 7-day exposure experiment to obtain toxicokinetic parameters, whereas the AUC-based acute toxicity model was verified with LC50(t) data obtained from a 7-day acute toxicity bioassay. Our results demonstrated that 96-hour LC50 and incipient LC50 for tilapia exposed to arsenic are 28.68 (95% confidence interval to 24.92 to 32.44) and 25.55 mg L−1, respectively. Dose–response relationships followed the Hill equation, which could be expressed as organ-specific bioconcentration factors and incipient LC50. Organ-specific dose-response relationships showed that muscle, gill, and liver have a relatively steep sigmoid dose-response profile in that IEC50 were 26.6, 62.5, and 78.5 μg g−1 dry wt (dw), respectively. Organ-specific arsenic internal lethal burdens were the highest in the gill and the lowest in the muscle in waterborne-exposed tilapia. The IEC and target-organ concentrations derived in this study can be used in site-specific risk assessment. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
