Semi-volatile organic compounds and developing organisms : accumulation in California mountain tadpoles in the field and fish embryo exposures in the laboratory

Creator:: Stanley, Kerri A.
Abstract:: The atmospheric transport and deposition of semi-volatile organic compounds (SOCs), including current and historic use pesticides, polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), to mountain ecosystems may result in the exposure of tadpoles to these SOCs. This exposure has been implicated in amphibian population declines in California. Tadpoles encounter...

Utilization of the Zebrafish Model for Investigating Nitrated Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbon Developmental Toxicity

Creator:: Chlebowski, Anna C.
Abstract:: Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are among the most widely known and studied environmental contaminants, originating from a range of natural and anthropogenic sources. PAHs are known to occur in the environment as complex mixtures, containing both unsubstituted PAHs, as well as a range of PAH derivatives. Among the less-studied of...

Classifying polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon bioactivities using phenotypic screening and transcriptomics in the developmental zebrafish model

Creator:: Geier, Mitra Celestine
Abstract:: Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are widespread environmental contaminants that occur in complex mixtures. These environmental mixtures can consist of both parent PAHs and their derivatives. Several parent PAHs are known or suspected mutagens and/or carcinogens, and a handful of PAH derivatives are known to be more potent mutagens and/or carcinogens...

Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances: From Disposition on Consumer Products and Field Materials to Treatment of Contaminated Groundwater

Creator:: Robel, Alix E.
Abstract:: Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are an emerging chemical class of concern. Recently in the United States, Health Advisory Limits for two PFAS in drinking water were established for perfluorooctane sulfonate and perfluorooctanoate in drinking water (set to 70 ng/L combine concentration) by the EPA. Because of PFAS mobility, persistence,...

Mercury distribution in sediments and uptake into an aquatic food web at Cottage Grove Reservoir, Oregon

Creator:: Morgans, Donna L.
Abstract:: The Cottage Grove Reservoir has been impacted by a point source (Black Butte Mine), where mercury mining and processing has occurred within its watershed from the 1890's to the late 1960's. Total mercury concentrations in surface sediments transect samples, core samples, tributary samples, and representative food web species were measured...

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...

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...

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...

Toxicogenomic Biomarkers Associated with PAH Carcinogenic Potential in a 3D in Vitro Bronchial Epithelial Model

Creator:: Chang, Yvonne
Abstract:: The environmental health science community recognizes polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) as a re-emerging class of environmental pollutants due to their persistence and prominence in mixtures of concern. Due to their widespread distribution in the environment, exposure to PAHs often occur as complex chemical mixtures. Exposures are linked to numerous adverse...

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...
