Papanin Institute of the Biology of Inland Waters, Russian Academy of Sciences, 152742, Borok, Yaroslavl oblast, Russia aut A simple diluter for flow-through toxicity studies [Elektronische Daten] [D. Pavlov] An original, simple, and inexpensive diluter for flow-through toxicity studies is described. The diluter is run only by water gravity and has no moving parts. The main units of the device are made of very cheap disposable components and may be mounted without qualified technical assistance. It has neither metal nor any other kind of chemically active parts contacting experimental media. The diluter may be easily modified to study toxicants independently or in mixtures, in fact, as many toxicants as are necessary. When properly calibrated, it does not require further adjustments even during long-term experiments. The main original feature of the diluter described here is its dosing system, which is based on a vacuum air lock. This key system is very simple, reliable, includes neither mechanical nor electrical devices, and ensures adequate accuracy in dosing.
