This study presented substantial observation and analysis regarding Artemia
salina, Brine Shrimp, mortality when Impatiens caviteana leaf and flower extracts
were applied in an invertebrate bioassay. It aimed to know the percentage mortality of
Artemia salina, Brine Shrimp, exposed to different concentrations of Impatiens
caviteana flower and leaf extracts, the probable causes of the mortality of Artemia
salina, Brine Shrimp, and the effects of different concentrations of Impatiens
caviteana flower and leaf extracts on the gross morphology of Artemia salina Brine
Shrimp. Oxygen deprivation as a physical factor and the phytochemical contents as a
chemical factor were regarded as the prime causative agent of Brine Shrimp mortality
and changes in the gross morphology. The mortality was analyzed through percentage
and computation of the mean number of mortality. Despite the absence of the physical
and observable effects on the Brine Shrimps, the properties of the phytochemicals-
Phenolics, Flavonoid and Alkaloid in altering the Brine Shrimp system could not be
disregarded. Physical factors, most importantly the oxygen deprivation during the 24
hour bioassay, was considered since it was an observed factor for Brine Shrimp
hatching but absent in the bioassay. Observable effect was the color change of some
of the Brine Shrimps to orange for oxygen deprivation and some to yellow due
possibly to Tannin. The loss or absence of appendage was mainly attributed to the
carnivorous nature of the Brine Shrimp. |
