TOXICITY AND METABOLISM STUDIES WITH EPA PRIORITY POLLUTANTS AND RELATED CHEMICALS IN FRESHWATER ORGANISMS
(1985)
Twenty-two chemicals from the EPA priority pollutant list were studied for their acute and/or
chronic toxicity to selected freshwater organisms. These included 1,2-dichloroethane,
1,1,2-trichloroethane, 1,1,2,2-tetra ...
THE EFFECTS OF WATER HARDNESS, Ph, CHLORIDE AND SULFATE SALTS, AND DISSOLVED ORGANIC MATTER ON THE TOXICITY OF SILVER TO FATHEAD MINNOWS (PIMEPHALES PROMELAS)
(1992-05-02)
A relationship between water hardness and the toxicity of silver to aquatic organisms was reported
in the National Water Quality Criteria for th Protection of Aquatic Life for Silver document (EPA
440/5-80-071 or PB81- ...
pH Dependency of 2,4,5-Trichlorosphenol Toxicity
(1993-09-30)
Acute 96-h flow-through toxicity tests with the compound 2,4,5- trichlorophenol (TCP) were
conducted using the annelid, Lumbriculus variegatus, as the test organism. Toxicity tests were
conducted at three nominal pH ...
Toxicity of Silver to the Fathead Minnow and an Invertebrate in Aged Toxicant Solutions with Laboratory Water and St. Louis River Water
(1993-10-10)
Acute toxicity tests with silver nitrate (AgN0₃) were conducted with two
species of test organisms. The fathead minnow, Pimephales promelas Rafinesque, and a cladoceran,
Daphnia magna, were used to determine the effects ...
The Effects of Food and Test Solution Age on the Toxicity of Silver to Three Freshwater Organisms
(1993-09)
Acute toxicity tests were conducted to determine the effects on the toxicity of silver of having
food present in test chambers and the effect of having silver solutions of different ages. Tests
were conducted in two ...
The Effects of Feeding and Not Feeding, Aging and Not Aging Test Solutions on the Toxicity of Silver to Fathead Minnows, Pimephales promelas
(1993-06-15)
Simultaneous 96-h static acute toxicity tests were conducted exposing fathead minnows (Pimephales
promelas Rafinesque) to aged and non-aged silver test solutions. Toxicity tests consisted of
exposing test organisms to ...
The Effects of Feeding and Not Feeding, Aging and Not Aging Test Solutions on the Toxicity of Silver to Daphnia magna
(1993-06-21)
Simultaneous 48-h static acute toxicity tests were conducted exposing the cladoceran, Daphnia
magna, to silver solutions with four test conditions. The tests consisted of exposing test
organisms to aged test solutions ...
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 ...
CONDUCTING TOXICITY TESTS WITH FRESHWATER ORGANISMS, CONDUCTING LITERATURE SERACHES, REVIEWING DATA AND PREPARING WATER QUALITY CRITERIA DOCUMENTS FOR THE COMPOUNDS FLUORANTHENE AND NONYLPHENOL
(1993-03-24)
The Environmental Health Laboratory at the University of Wisconsin-Superior (UW-S) conducted tests
to complete the data set necessary to derive national water quality criteria for nonylphenol. The
tests were the eight ...
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 ...
