The purpose of this study is to follow-up the distribution, lethality percentile doses (LDs) and bioaccumulation of aluminium oxide nanoparticles (Al2O3-NPs, average diameter 9.83 ± 1.61 nm) in some tissues of male albino rats, and to evaluate its genotoxicity to the brain tissues, during acute and sublethal experiments. The LDs of Al2O3-NPs, including median lethal dose (LD50), were estimated ...
19. SECURITY CLASSIFICATION OF ABSTRACT 18. SECURITY CLASSIFICATION OF THIS PAGE 16. PRICE CODE 15. NUMBER OF TEXT PAGES: 40 13. ABSTRACT Laboratory methods for measuring body burdens of low-level chemical contaminants in aquatic organisms traditionally have required sizeable amounts of tissue for analysis (i.e., 10 to 30 grams wet weight of tissue per sample). Predisposal testing of dredged ma...
Methylmercury (MeHg) levels in dragonfly larvae and water were measured over two years in aquatic systems impacted to varying degrees by sulfate releases related to iron mining activity. This study examined the impact of elevated sulfate loads on MeHg concentrations and tested the use of MeHg in dragonfly larvae as an indicator of MeHg levels in a range of aquatic systems including 16 river/str...
Pacific lampreys (Entosphenus tridentatus) have resided in the Columbia River Basin for millennia and have great ecological and cultural importance. The role of habitat contamination in the recent decline of the species has rarely been studied and was the main objective of this effort. A wide range of contaminants (115 analytes) was measured in sediments and tissues at 27 sites across a large g...
Cadmium (Cd) and zinc (Zn) in surface water, sediment, carp, and crab samples collected from upstream and downstream regions of coastal watersheds along the Chinese Northern Bohai and Yellow Seas were analyzed to provide a comprehensive understanding and assessment of their environmental concentrations and bioaccumulations. The results showed that downstream waters contaminated with Zn would ha...
Mechanistic models predicting copper (Cu) toxicity to aquatic biota in natural waters require organic and inorganic water chemistry, and quantified values for Cu binding by sensitive biological receptors. In bioaccumulation experiments using larval fathead minnows (FHM; Pimephales promelas), we investigated time to asymptotic accumulation of Cu and quantified the conditional stability constants...
The biomass of Vaucheria sessilis forms algal mats in many freshwaters. There is a need to find the method of algal biomass utilization. Vaucheria sessilis is a rich source of micro- and macronutrients and can be used as a soil amendment. In the paper, the elemental composition of enriched, via bioaccumulation process, macroalga was investigated. For this purpose, two independent techniques wer...
This study concerns the bioaccumulation of the long-lived nuclear waste product 99Tc in duckweed (Lemna minor L.). 99Tc was present as the oxyanion TcO4-, being the main chemical form of technetium in aerobic water systems. In contrast with terrestrial plants, bioaccumulation in duckweed proved to be independent of the nitrate concentration in the medium. However, uptake is controlled by electr...
The present study investigated the acute toxic effects of a metal-loaded Bauxsol reagent (MLBR), containing more than 6,450 mg kg(-1) of bound metal, on the earthworm Eisenia fetida. Bauxsol is manufactured by Virotec Global Solutions of Gold Coast, Queensland, Australia. The E. fetida were exposed to 0, 10, 20, 40, 60, and 80% treatments of MLBR plus cow manure for 28 d. Good motility and no m...
