Abstract Acute toxicity of several disinfectants and antibiotics to juvenile sea cucumber Apostichopus japonicus was determined. It was found that the acute toxicity of the medicines to sea cucumber juveniles in a descent order ranged as oxytetracycline > norfloxacin > sulfamethoxazole. Medium lethal concentration (LC 50) in 24, 48 h of oxytetracycline is 166 mg/L, and 115 mg/L with safe concentration(SC) of 16.56 mg/L , respectively; LC 50 in 24,48 h of norfloxacin is 457, 407 mg/L, respectively, and safe concentration(SC)is 96.9 mg/L; LC 50 in 48, 72 h of sulfamethoxazole is 300, 224 mg/L, respectively. The toxicity sequence of the disinfectants to sea cucumber juveniles in a descent order ranged as chlorine dioxide > potassium permanganate > formalin > sodium chlorite > dipterex. The 24 h LC 50 of chlorine dioxide is 0.36 mg/L; the 24,48 h, and 72 h LC 50 of potassium permanganate is 3.02,2.09,1.26 mg/L, respectively, with SC of 0.23 mg/L; the 24, 48 h,and 72 h LC 50 of formalin is 8.71×10 -6,4.37×10 -6, 1.62×10 -6, respectively, with SC of 0.33×10 -6; the 24, 48, 72 h ,and 96 h LC 50 of sodium chlorite is 44.7×10 -6,14.5×10 -6,10.0×10 -6, and 9.3×10 -6, respectively, with a SC of 8.46 mg/L; the 24,48,72 h,and 96 h LC 50 of dipterex is 479,158,105,78 mg/L, respectively, with a SC of 6.49 mg/L. The feasibility of several common disinfectants and antibiotics in the culture of the sea cucumber was discussed.
