TOXICITY OF ALUMINUM TO FRESHWATER ORGANISMS IN WATER OF pH 6.5 - 8.5
(1984-11-26)
Most studies on the toxicity of aluminum (Al) to aquatic life have been conducted in acidic waters,
due to concerns centered around surface water acidification. Fewer studies have been conducted in
waters of neutral ...
ACUTE TOXICITY OF SELENIUM (IV) AND SELENIUM (VI) TO FRESHWATER ORGANISMS
(1985-12)
The primary sources of selenium in the environment are geologic and industrial. Selenium closely
resembles sulfur chemically, and sulfur or sulfide deposits of bismuth, copper, iron, lead,
mercury, silver, and zinc ...
ACUTE EXPOSURE OF HEXACHLOROBENZENE TO SELECTED FRESHWATER ORGANISMS
(1986-01)
Hexachlorobenzene is a commercially produced chemical of high annual
tonnage production used as a feedstock for many chemical manufacturing processes. It is a chemical
listed by the U.S., Environmental Protection Agency ...
ACUTE TOXICITY OF ANTIMONY III TO SEVERAL SPECIES OF FRESHWATER ORGANISMS
(1986-08)
Antimony (III) chloride is very soluble in water. The Merck Index (9th
ed.) reports a solubility of 1 g SbC13 per 10.1 mL of water. This solution undergoes gradual
hydrolysis to antimony oxychloride (SbOCl), which is ...
TOXICITY OF ALUMINUM TO FRESHWATER ORGANISMS IN WATER OF pH 6.5 - 8.5
(1982)
Most studies on the toxicity of aluminum (Al) to aquatic life have been conducted in acidic waters, due to concerns centered around surface water acidification. Fewer studies have been ...
ACUTE TOXICITY AND CHRONIC EFFECTS OF BIS (TRI-N-BUTYLTIN) OXIDE TO SEVERAL SPECIES OF FRESHWATER ORGANISMS
(1986-12)
Triorganotin compounds are widely used as industrial biocides, agricultural chemicals, wood
preservatives, and marine antifoulants. Although the in vitro fungicidal biological activity of
the triorganotins was recognized ...
ACUTE TOXICITY OF 2,4,5-TRICHLOROPHENOL TO FRESHWATER INVERTEBRATES
(1986-01)
The primary source of 2,4,5-trichlorophenol (2,4,5-TCP) contamination in the environment is
industrial effluents. The compound itself is used as a germicide and also as a reagent in the
synthesis of certain herbicides, ...
TOXICITY OF PHENANTHRENE TO SEVERAL FRESHWATER SPECIES
(1986-12)
Phenanthrene is a by-product of fossil fuel combusion. It is a constituent of coal tars and has
been detected in the stack gases of both oil- and coal-fired power and manufacturing plants. The
purpose of this study ...
FRESHWATER AQUATIC CRITERIA DEVELOPMENT AND TOXICITY TESTING
(1986)
Aquatic toxicity testing was completed on a number of compounds/elements to supply the necessary data for preparation of Criteria Documents in 1986. The compounds/elements tested included hexachlorobenzene, selenium IV & ...
ACUTE TOXICITY OF ANTIMONY III TO SEVERAL SPECIES OF FRESHWATER ORGANISMS
(1986-08)
Antimony (.III) chloride is very soluble in water. The Merck Index (9th ed.) reports a solubility of 1 g SbC13 per 10.1 mL of water. This solution undergoes gradual hydrolysis to antimony oxychloride (Sb2Cl), which. is ...
