Abstract：Neocaridina denticulate was used as a test organism to investigate the acutetoxicity of 4daysand chronic toxicity of 28days forfive organophosphorus pesticides. Results showed that the 96h-LC50 values toNeocaridina denticulatewere 34.100, 846.408, 7.736, 4.132 and 1606.875μg/L for dichlorvos, malathion, parathion, methyl-parathionand dimethoate, respectively. The 28d NOEC values of dichlorvos, malathion, parathion, methyl-parathionand dimethoatewas 0.991, 7.755, 0.269, 0.222 and 100μg/L, respectively, and the 28d LOEC was 1.388, 15.200, 0.404, 0.333 and 200μg/L, respectively.Neocaridina denticulate was more sensitive to dichlorvos followed by parathionand dimethoate, and less sensitive tomethyl-parathion and malathion. The results in this study would provide a scientific foundation for establishing theaquatic lifecriteria and performing the environment risk assessment for fiveorganophosphoruspesticidesin China.
