Cadmium Lacey Brandt
Cadmium properties • Transition metal • Solid • Silvery grey • Oxidation state- +2, +1 • Atomic weight- 112.4g/mol • Density-8.65g/cm³ • No reaction with water • Malleable • Ductile
History and production • 1817- Cd discovered- impure ZnCo3- color and heat • 1850- Cadmium pigments- yellow, red • 1899- NiCd rechargeable battery • 1907- production in the united states • 1900’s- corrosion-protection steel coating • After 1945- wide spread use Freidrich Stromeyer German chemist
current use • Ni-Cd batteries • protective coatings • pigments • stabilizer- PVC • alloys • pesticides
CADMIUM SALTS- different solubility, toxic levels • CdH₂ • CdF₂ • CdCl₂ • CdBr₂ • CdI₂ • CdO • CdS • CdSe • CdTe • Cd₃N₂
CADMIUM ENTRY INTO ENVIRONMENT • weathering • erosion • river runoff • diatom deposition • occurs naturally
Cadmium enters and accumulates in many marine organisms • Food consumption • Respiration • Filtration
TOXICITY TO MARINE ANIMALS • Salinity and Cd toxicity • Inversely proportional • Cl binds with Cd • Free Cd toxic
Trophic transfer • [Cd ]of the water is not indication • of food safety • Fish growth affected
Penaeid shrimp Penaeu japonicus Increased tolerance with development nauplii 48h LC50=124ug/L Zoea 96 LC50=10-30ug/L Post-larvae 96 LC50= 200-3500ug/L Juvenile 96LC50=5500ug/L Decreased osmoregulation
Chronic protracted toxicity test • Mysidopsis bahia • 17 day life cycle test • 10.6 ug/L @ 20 ⁰/₀₀ • Δ Breeding cycle • Δ # of young released • Sensitive crustacean LC50 ~ 15
Eastern oyster- Crassostrea virginica • Physiological effects • intracellular localization • Gills- mitochondria-> Respiration-> metabolism • Hepatopancreas- lysosomes -> lysosome damage
A DEEPER LOOK….. Mutagenic - DNA Clastogenic- chromosomes Carcinogenic-cancer Teratogenic-birth defects
GENOTOXICITY • Cd • Break DNA directly • Break DNA indirectly • Oxidative stress- free radicals • Inhibits glutathione ROS scavenger • Response= DNA breakage/ recovery • Cd impairs DNA repair- compete with zinc
MECHANISMS OF DETOXIFICATION • Metallothioneins (MT) • low mw proteins • cytosol • saturation- bind to critical sites • Sequestering- • Vesicles- lysosomes, other structures • Saturation-> lysosome damage • FOUNDRY COVE/ SOUTH COVE STUDY • oligochaete Limnodrilus sp. Used both mechanisms • MTs transfer to lysosomes
