Narcosis is a nonspecific reversible state of arrested activity of protoplasmic structures caused by a wide variety of organic chemicals. The vast majority of industrial organic chemicals can be characterized by a baseline structure-toxicity relationship as developed for diverse aquatic organisms,
Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) partitioning coefficients between sediment organic carbon and water (K(OC)) values were determined using 114 historically contaminated and background sediments collected from eight different rural and urban waterways in the northeastern United States. More than
Many partitioning and toxicological events that appear to correlate simply with log P (octanol/water) can be resolved into greater detail by a factoring process. Log P can be separated into lipophilic (PL) and hydrophilic (PH) contributions that combine well with polarizability (MR) and
The ecotoxicity of the nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) diclofenac, ibuprofen, naproxen, and acetylsalicylic acid (ASA) has been evaluated using acute Daphnia and algal tests. Toxicities were relatively low, with half-maximal effective concentration (EC50) values obtained using Daphnia
