Advancement of Passive Sampling Applications for Assessing Contaminant Transport, Bioaccumulation, and Toxicity

Creator:: Minick, David J.
Abstract:: In the environment, it is the unbound fraction of chemical (Cfree) which is able to diffuse across environmental interfaces and biological membranes. It is therefore Cfree which drives many important biological-environmental processes including contaminant transport, bioaccumulation and toxicity. Passive sampling devices (PSDs) offer a simplified and more accurate approach for...

Selenium and trace metal accumulation in detrital-benthic food webs of lotic and lentic wetlands, Utah, USA

Creator:: Hillwalker, Wendy E.
Abstract:: Concentrations of selenium (Se), manganese (Mn), zinc (Zn), cadmium (Cd), lead (Pb) and arsenic (As) were measured in the water column, sediment and biota, in conjunction with selected physicochemical data, from representative wetland types at a mining site within Salt Lake County, Utah, USA. The selected field sites included Oolitic...

From pesticide degradation products to legacy toxicants and emerging contaminants : novel analytical methods, approaches, and modeling

Creator:: Forsberg, Norman D.
Abstract:: Environmental toxicologists and public health officials are responsible for assisting in the identification, management, and mitigation of public health hazards. As a result, there is a continued need for robust analytical tools that can aid in the rapid quantification and characterization of chemical exposure. In the first research phase, we...

Long-term fertilizer input influences total and bioavailable metal in agricultural soils and crops

Creator:: Pérez, Angela L.
Abstract:: Protection of the quality and integrity of food supplies is of global concern. Crops can accumulate non-nutritive and sometimes toxic metals and metalloids. Accumulated metals/metalloids can come in part, from fertilizers, which may contain variable levels of non-nutritive metals or metalloids such as arsenic (As), cadmium (Cd), lead (Pb), nickel...

Human Exposure to PAHs in Air, Water, and Crayfish

Creator:: Paulik, L. Blair
Abstract:: There are many links between exposure to environmental pollution and risks to human health. While advances in the fields of toxicology, exposure science, and environmental chemistry have shown light on many of these links, many more research challenges remain. One major challenge is how to accurately characterize the toxicity of...

Development of innovative applications for passive sampling devices : monitoring bioavailability, risk from exposure and environmental mixture toxicity

Creator:: Allan, Sarah E.
Abstract:: Chemicals must be bioavailable for there to be a potential for exposure and consequent risk to human or environmental health. Passive sampling devices (PSDs) are used to quantify the time-integrated concentration of bioavailable contaminants. We demonstrate that PSDs can be paired with the zebrafish developmental toxicity bioassay to produce site-specific,...

Passive sampling devices as biological surrogates for evaluating seasonal bioavailability of hydrophobic organic contaminants in surface water

Creator:: Sethajintanin, Doolalai
Abstract:: The seasonal distribution of bioavailable organochiorine contaminants in surface water and the potential environmental factors influencing their bioavailability were evaluated. The study was carried at the lower Willamette River at Portland Harbor, Oregon where surface water runoff varied according to season. Bioavailable water concentrations of DDTs and PCBs were determined...

New applications and emerging contaminants : developing silicone passive sampling devices for environmental and novel monitoring applications

Creator:: O'Connell, Steven G.
Abstract:: Passive sampling is a popular technology for environmental monitoring, and silicone is an ideal choice for a variety of passive sampling applications. The silicone work described here encompasses laboratory and field studies that demonstrate the use of this polymer in novel environments, for new applications, and for emerging compounds. Unique...

Beyond the 16 EPA priority pollutant PAHs : environmental characterizations of oxygenated PAHs and dibenzopyrene isomers

Creator:: Layshock, Julie
Abstract:: Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) with a molecular weight (MW) of 302 and oxygenated-PAHs (OPAHs) have demonstrated toxicity beyond that of frequently monitored and known carcinogenic PAHs. Airborne particulate matter (PM) was characterized for MW 302 isomers to evaluate risk and air quality indices and OPAHs in order to fill data...

Exploring Silicone Wristbands as Personal Passive Sampling Devices in a Disaster Scenario

Creator:: Samon, Samantha M.
Abstract:: Exposure assessment is necessary to determine the frequency and magnitude of environmental contaminants, especially since exposure may lead to adverse health outcomes. Traditional personal exposure assessment tools such as biological samples are limited in their ability to capture a wide range of chemical exposures from a single sample, and others...
