A toxicokinetic-toxicodynamic model based on subcellular metal partitioning is presented for simulating chronic toxicity of copper. The study indicates ineffective detoxification at high exposure levels and spill-over effects of detoxification.
A toxicokinetic-toxicodynamic model based on subcellular metal partitioning is presented for simulating chronic toxicity of copper (Cu) from the estimated concentration in the fraction of potentially toxic metal (PTM). As such, the model allows for considering the significance of different pathways of metal sequestration in predicting metal toxicity. In the metabolically available pool (MAP), excess metals above the metabolic requirements and the detoxification and elimination capacity form the PTM fraction. The reversibly and irreversibly detoxified fractions were distinguished in the biologically detoxified compartment, while responses of organisms were related to Cu accumulation in the PTM fraction. The model was calibrated using the data on Cu concentrations in subcellular fractions and physiological responses measured by the glutathione S-transferase activity and the lipid peroxidation level during 24-day exposure of the Zebra mussel to Cu at concentrations of 25 and 50 mu g/L and varying Na+ concentrations up to 4.0 mmol/L. The model was capable of explaining dynamics in the subcellular Cu partitioning, e.g. the trade-off between elimination and detoxification as well as the dependence of net accumulation, elimination, detoxification, and metabolism on the exposure level. Increases in the net accumulation rate in the MAP contributed to increased concentrations of Cu in this fraction. Moreover, these results are indicative of ineffective detoxification at high exposure levels and spill-over effects of detoxification.
