A bacterial leachate effect is not a shrimp safety verdict

The evidence library is allowed to change in public. This page preserves the revised boundary, why it moved and which guides were affected.

What changed

The chemical-safety and behaviour guides now include a 2021 N. palmata plastic-leachate experiment while separating bacterial luminescence inhibition from a consistent shrimp locomotor effect, particle exposure and household-product safety.

Why it changed

Duplicate 24-hour leachates were pooled, particle-filtered and concentrated before testing. Eight one-shrimp vessels per concentration repeated movement observations across 14 days, but individual variation dominated and the two locomotor endpoints showed no consistent concentration-response. The article did not identify the causal compounds, test N. davidi or measure growth, reproduction, histology or chronic aquarium exposure.

Sources reviewed for this change

Affected practical guides

A public change is not automatically a retraction. A source may be added, a scope narrowed, a gap refined or an error corrected. The current guide and registry record own the current wording.
