The application of embryo–larval bioassay with the purple sea urchinParacentrotus lividusand the musselMytilus galloprovincialisat 48 hours, and with neonates of the mysidSiriella armataat 96 hours, was used to evaluate the acute toxicities of the following preparations: (1) the shoreline cleaning agent CytoSol; (2) the water-accommodated fraction of CytoSol plus a light crude oil; and (3) the runoff from a pilot-scale treatment with CytoSol of a rocky coastal substrate impregnated with residues from thePrestigeoil spill (which occurred on November 19, 2002). The mussel was the most sensitive organism to CytoSol and runoff effects (EC50= 8.0 μL/L and 64.3 mL/L, respectively), and the mysid was the least sensitive to the runoff (EC50> 200 mL/L). The predicted no-effect environmental concentration (PNEC) was calculated from the no observed–effect concentration of the species most sensitive to the runoff. The predicted environmental concentration (PEC) was estimated from a simple and reasonable dilution model, and the PEC/PNEC ratio was calculated according to the area treated and the values of the variables considered in the model. Implications for the management of the treatment operations are discussed.
