Abstract

This study aimed to evaluate the effects of cadmium chloride (CdCI2) on the hatching rate of golden apple snail eggs and its lethal toxicity level, as well as to apply acetylcholinesterase (AChE) in golden apple snail exposed to CdCl2 to be an indicator of exposure. The results showed that CdCl2 affected the hatching rate of the golden apple snails in all groups of golden apple snail eggs exposed to CdCl2 in the concentration levels of 0.05, 0.10, 0.20, 0.30 and 0.40 mg/L. CdCl2 at 4.0 mg/L had the lowest hatching rate (39.61%) and their hatching rates were significantly lower than the control group (p<0.05).  Abnormalities being observed after the eggs exposing to CdCl2 were abnormal egg cell and embryo. We also found that CdCl2 at 4.0 mg/L affected the egg cell and embryo at the highest hatching rates with abnormalities at 61.12% and 63.83%, respectively. Moreover, when the medium sized golden apple snail was tested for the toxicity of CdCl2, which caused 50% mortality at 96 h, the concentration was approximately at 1.77 (1.71-1.83) mg/L. Additionally, an isoform of AChE had the molecular weight of 71 kDa when investigating by SDS-PAGE technique. AChE expression was lowered with an increasing in concentration of CdCl2.  At the sub-lethal concentration levels at 0, 0.05, 0.10, 0.20, 0.30 and 0.40 mg/L after 96 h of exposure, detection limits by dot blot technique were found at 0.156, 0.312, 0.625, 2.5 and 5 µg/µl, respectively. Besides, for lethal concentration levels at 0, 0.50, 1.00, 1.50, 2.00 and 2.50 mg/L, the detection limits of dot blot technique were consecutively 10, 10, 10, 10, 10, 20 µg/µl. Keywords :  cadmium chloride ; biomarker ; golden apple snail ; acetylcholinesterase
