The neurotoxic substance beta, beta-iminodipropionitrile (IDPN), which induces hyperkinesia in some mammals, was found to be neurotoxic to the brine shrimp Artemia salina L. (Crustacea, Anostraca) inducing discoordination of limb-movement and sedation of motility. Up to 9 metabolities of IDPN were detected in Artemia, including beta-alanine, cyanoacetic acid, and beta-aminopropionitrile (BAPN). Brine shrimp, especially nauplius (1 day), may be a useful test animal for the biological assay of IDPN.
神经毒性物质β,β-亚氨基二丙腈(IDPN)可在某些哺乳动物中诱发运动亢进,现已发现其对卤虫(甲壳纲,无甲目)具有神经毒性,可导致卤虫肢体运动失调和运动迟缓。在卤虫体内检测到多达9种IDPN的代谢产物,包括β-丙氨酸、氰基乙酸和β-氨基丙腈(BAPN)。卤虫,尤其是无节幼体(1日龄),可能是用于IDPN生物测定的有用实验动物。
