Opis:
A high number of whitefish, Coregonus lavaretus, from Lake Thun, Switzerland, display gonad malformations. We tested the hypothesis that exposure to sediment-borne contaminants during the embryonic life results in the development of malformed gonads later in ontogeny. The investigated contaminants were 2,4,6-trinitrotoluene (TNT), which may leak from residues in the lake sediments as consequence of former ammunition dumping into Lake Thun, as well as sulfonated naphthalene formaldehyde condensates (SNFC), which are introduced into the lake from wastewater disposals of a nearby tunnel construction site. Experimentally, whitefish eggs were exposed during 52 days from fertilization until hatching to a) an artificial sediment (control), b) an artificial sediment spiked with TNT (0.5mg*kg-1 dry weight), c) SNFC compounds dissolved in water (3µg*l-1 of each naphthalene-1-sulphonate, naphthalene-2-sulphonate, naphthalene-1,5-disulphonate, naphthalene-2,7-disulphonate), and d) sediment from Lake Thun sampled in an ammunition dumping area. To mimic in situ exposure of the eggs to the sediment-water-interface under laboratory conditions, we developed a novel contact incubation technique. After hatching, fish were reared in tap water for three years until they reached sexual maturity, and were then examined for the presence of gonad malformations. No malformations were observed in the control, in the TNT and SNFC treatment groups. In fish incubated during the embryonic stage on Lake Thun sediment, 2 out of 117 adult males (1.7%) displayed malformed gonads, which is significantly lower than levels of gonad malformations in wild whitefish from Lake Thun (on average 29% in males, 12% in females). The results from our experiment provide no evidence that sediment contamination with TNT or SNFC compounds is a causative factor for the induction of gonad malformations in Lake Thun whitefish.
