Passive samplers accurately predict PAH levels in resident crayfish

Creator:

Paulik, L. Blair, Smith, Brian W., Bergmann, Alan J., Sower, Greg J., Forsberg, Norman D., Teeguarden, Justin G., and Anderson, Kim A.

Abstract:

Contamination of resident aquatic organisms is a major concern for environmental risk assessors. However, collecting organisms to estimate risk is often prohibitively time and resource-intensive. Passive sampling accurately estimates resident organism contamination, and it saves time and resources. This study used low density polyethylene (LDPE) passive water samplers to predict...

Predicting Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbon Concentrations in Resident Aquatic Organisms Using Passive Samplers and Partial Least-Squares Calibration

Creator:

Forsberg, Norman D., Smith, Brian W., Sower, Greg J., and Anderson, Kim A.

Abstract:

The current work sought to develop predictive models between time-weighted average polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) concentrations in the freely dissolved phase and those present in resident aquatic organisms. We deployed semipermeable membrane passive sampling devices (SPMDs) and collected resident crayfish (Pacifastacus leniusculus) at nine locations within and outside of the...
