The effects of the exposure of green crabs (Carcinus maenas) to an anti-sea lice drug : emamectin benzoate in spiked marine sediments / Lauren Jonah, Melanie Kingsbury, and Dounia Hamoutene. : Fs97-6/3784E-PDF
"Emamectin benzoate (EMB) is an in-feed antiparasitic used in the finfish aquaculture industry to control sea lice infestations. EMB can accumulate in marine sediments surrounding fish farms due to its hydrophobicity and affinity to sorb onto particulate matter. It is persistent in the sediment with a half-life ranging from 100 to >500 days and potentially bioavailable long-term to non-target benthic organisms. EMB exposure has been documented to affect benthic species like crustaceans through direct exposure to the sediment or by ingestion of wastes through foraging. In this study, we exposed green crabs to EMB spiked sediment for 130 days and investigated the effects of EMB on growth and survival"--Abstract, page iv.
