On a global scale, pathogenic contamination of drinking water poses the most significant
health risk to humans, and there have been countless numbers of disease outbreaks and …

Pollution-free stream water and sediments are crucial to support healthy stream flora and
fauna, but urban surface runoff impairs water quality and leaves a legacy of pollution in the …

This study demonstrates that the novelin vitroCALUX (chemical-activated luciferase
expression) assay is a rapid, sensitive assay for assessing the toxic potency of (mixtures of) …

This study characterized the relationship between juvenile rainbow mussels (Villosa iris)
and the sediment they inhabit. Dye studies in a feeding chamber, video recordings of …

Sediments from three Galician Rias were tested for toxicity using sea-urchin and ascidian
sediment elutriate embryo–larval bioassays. Trace metal contents in seawater, sediments …

The partitioning, bioavailability, and toxicity of cypermethrin in water–sediment systems was
investigated. Cypermethrin adsorbed extensively and rapidly, with an overall mean organic …

The present study constitutes the first investigation to demonstrate pyrethroid
bioaccumulation in marine mammals, despite the assumption that these insecticides are …

Metal contamination from acid mine drainage (AMD) is a serious problem in the southwest of
the Iberian Peninsula, where the Iberian Pyrite Belt is located. This zone contains original …

Broad consensus exists that whole‐sediment exposure protocols represent the most realistic
scenario to simulate in situ exposure conditions. So far, however, several endpoints …

Acute laboratory toxicity tests were performed on surficial sediments collected from 1176
locations throughout 22 estuarine areas in the United States. Toxicity was determined with …
