Aquatic toxicity of triclosan

Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry, 2002
Abstract The aquatic toxicity of triclosan (TCS), a chlorinated biphenyl ether used as an antimicrobial in consumer products, was studied with activated-sludge microorganisms, algae, invertebrates, and fish. Triclosan, a compound used for inhibiting microbial growth, was not toxic to wastewater microorganisms at concentrations less than ...

BISPHENOL A: ACUTE AQUATIC TOXICITY

Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry, 1988
Abstract The Society of the Plastics Industry, Inc., ad hoc Bisphenol A Task Group determined that freshwater and saltwater environmental effects testing on bisphenol A should be conducted. This decision was based upon the nation's high production capacity for bisphenol A, which is manufactured at many sites, its potential for entering ...

Toxicity of trifluoroacetate to aquatic organisms

Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry, 1999
Abstract As a result of the atmospheric degradation of several hydrofluorocarbons and hydrochlorofluorocarbons, trifluoroacetate (TFA) will be formed. Through precipitation, TFA will enter aquatic ecosystems. To evaluate the impact on the aquatic environment, an aquatic toxicity testing program was carried out with sodium ...

Aquatic toxicity of two Corexit® dispersants

Chemosphere, 2000
The oil spill dispersants, Corexit 9500 and Corexit 9527 have low to moderate toxicity to most aquatic species in laboratory tests. Toxicity estimates are significantly affected by test variables such as species, lifestage, exposure duration, and temperature.

Aquatic Animals in Toxicity Testing

Journal of the American College of Toxicology, 1984
Aquatic animals provide useful models for toxicological evaluations that bridge the gap between real world and laboratory problems. Select aquatic organisms are adaptable to laboratory experimentation in areas such as acute toxicity testing and chronic sublethal risks evaluation, including such phenomena as carcinogenesis, mutagenesis, and ...
