Abstract: Diethyl phthalate (DEP) is considered an emerging synthetic chemical<br/>pollutant utilized as a plasticizer for personal care, insecticides, plastic packaging, and<br/>other plastic products. Detecting these chemicals is important to understand the toxicity<br/>effect of DEP. This study aimed to evaluate the median lethal concentration (LC50) of<br/>DEP on Nile Tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) fingerlings and assess the behavioral and<br/>morphological changes to DEP and the presence of DEP in Pampanga River in San<br/>Miguel, Bulacan. The acute toxicity was tested to determine the LC50 of the DEP on the<br/>Nile Tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) fingerlings by static bioassay method using probit<br/>analysis. Fingerlings were exposed to different concentrations (0, 25, 35, 50, and 75 ppm)<br/>of DEP for 96 hours. The lethal concentration 50 value was 48.073 mg/L with a 95%<br/>confidence limit. The Pampanga River has a < 1 μg/L presence of DEP. Fingerlings were<br/>exposed to sub-lethal concentration (1/10 of LC50) that allowed monitoring of their<br/>behavioral and morphological changes within 7 days. The toxicity effects of DEP on Nile<br/>Tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) are evident even at sub-lethal concentrations to have<br/>behavioral and morphological changes. Fingerlings showed sluggishness, loss of<br/>equilibrium, abnormal movement, and changes in dark skin pigmentation on the dorsal<br/>surface. Fingerlings exposed to DEP showed significantly reduced growth compared to<br/>the control group, with a 46% difference in weight and an 11% difference in length. The<br/>water quality parameters of aquariums were aligned with the BFAR guidelines for the<br/>growth of Nile Tilapia fingerlings. This includes pH ranging from (7.71 to 8.16),<br/>temperature (27.8 °C to 28.1 °C), TDS (84 mg/L to 113 mg/L), salinity (84 mg/L to 113<br/>mg/L), and DO (5.1 mg/L to 7.1 mg/L). This encourages people to be aware of the<br/>adverse effects of pollutants in the Pampanga River, San Miguel, Calumpit, Bulacan,<br/>Philippines. |
