Various methods used to assess the biodegradability of chemicals often employ activated sludge as an inoculum since chemicals that ultimately enter the environment are often discharged through wastewater. Differences in the structure and function of

The effects of seasonally decreasing river water temperature on surfactant biodegradation and algal sensitivity are reviewed from four stream mesocosm studies conducted over a 5-year period. Seasonal temperatures ranged from 28 to 0 degree C over all

Biolog MicroPlates are 96-well plates that contain pre-dried carbon sources and a tetrazolium violet redox dye that turns purple if added microorganisms utilize the nutrients. We have measured absorbance changes due to tetrazolium dye response for mi

Periphyton communities are an ecologically important source of information when conducting experimental stream ecotoxicological studies. Experimental stream studies often utilize unreplicated systems in order to understand dose-response phenomena. Th

Environmental chemistry is a vital part of ecotoxicology studies conducted in mesocosms. Quantification of exposure can be particularly challenging for biodegradable surfactants in once-through stream mesocosms like the Procter & Gamble Experimental

Multiple indicators (Chl a, C : N ratios, [6L3C]POC, and two classes of lipid biomarker compounds- sterols and phospholipid ester-linked fatty acids) were used to evaluate spatial and temporal variations in the origin of particulate organic matter (P

A manipulative experiment was conducted to evaluate a biochemical method for using periphyton in water quality assessment. Periphyton assemblages that developed in situ on ceramic tiles placed in a reference site in one stream were transferred into a

We examined the use of radiotracers to determine if 3 H-amino acids (AA) and 14 C-bicarbonate could differentiate grazing by Physella virgata, a pulmonate gastropod, on the bacterial and algal components in periphyton. Large amounts of 3 H-AA became

Assessment of single-species bioassays of aquatic toxicity is a standard approach to predict the potential for effects of a test chemical in the environment. To reach a prediction, however, the assessment process takes into consideration both the res

Microbial biofilms increase the complexity and spatial variation of the interfacial chemistry occurring at metal surfaces and can facilitate corrosion. A multi-electrode probe was designed to replicate interfacial chemistry by providing multiple inte
