Synthetic musk fragrances in Lake Michigan.
Synthetic musk fragrances are added to a wide variety of personal care and household products and are present in treated wastewater effluent. Here we report for the first time ambient air and water measurements of six polycyclic musks (AHTN, HHCB, ATII, ADBI, AHMI, and DPMI) and two nitro musks (musk xylene and musk ketone) in North America. The compounds were measured in the air and water of L...
متن کاملLake-based magnetic mapping of contaminated sediment distribution, Hamilton Harbour, Lake Ontario, Canada
The remediation of toxic sediment in harbours and urban waterways requires detailed mapping of contaminated sediment distribution and thickness. Conventional methods rely on interpolation of pollutant concentrations from widely spaced core samples but can lead to significant errors in estimating sediment distribution. An improved approach, as demonstrated by recent work in Hamilton Harbour in L...
متن کاملAtypical Tabularia in Coastal Lake Erie, USA
Tabularia populations collected at a coastal site in Lake Erie, near Cleveland, Ohio, USA exhibit highly abnormal morphology. Frustules may be bent, asymmetric, have irregular striae patterns, irregular margins, or any combination of these characters. The majority of specimens in the collection are abnormal to some degree. Although specimens are so atypical that identification is difficult, rel...
متن کاملSynthetic musk fragrances in human milk from the United States.
Synthetic musk compounds are used as additives in many consumer products, including perfumes, deodorants, and detergents. Earlier studies have reported the occurrence of synthetic musks in environmental and wildlife samples collected in the United States. In this study, human breast milk samples collected from Massachusetts, were analyzed for the determination of concentrations of synthetic mus...
متن کاملSediment distribution of methanogenic bacteria in lake erie and cleveland harbor.
The direct fluorescent-antibody technique was employed to determine the distribution patterns of four species of methanogens in the sediments of Lake Erie and Cleveland Harbor. Methanobacterium ruminantium was the most numerous methanogen found in regions of high-organic-silt sediments. The population of this species ranged from 10 to 10 cells/g of dry sediment. Methanobacterium strain MoH and ...
