Abstract The androgenic potential of a New Zealand pulp and paper mill effluent was measured by applying combination in vitro vivo bioassays with mosquitofish ( Gambusia affinis ) goldfish Carassius auratus ). method assessed the rate gonopodial development (masculinization) alterations from normal reproductive behavior adult female exposed for 21 d to untreated or secondary‐treated effluent. A second exposure tested effect glass‐fiber (type C) filtration on rates expression same endpoints....
Application of municipal biosolids to agricultural soil can improve quality and crop yields. However, runoff or tile leachate from biosolids-applied fields may contribute localized eutrophication surface water. A laboratory experiment was conducted determine loss potential nutrients soils amended with two different (anaerobically digested chemically stabilized) relative a reference response in freshwater microcosms lost soils. Total phosphorus (TP) total nitrogen (TN) were measured runoff,...
Abstract Studies of the sediments Hamilton Harbour, Lake Ontario, Canada, have shown variable degrees pollution with a large number organic and inorganic pollutants. Three areas in Harbour – Windemere Basin, Cootes Paradise Randle Reef exhibited particularly high levels contaminants, concomitant impacts on benthic organisms. Sediment samples examined this study were taken from site station (LE 23) Erie used as reference sample. The subjected to chemical fractionation remove one fraction...
Abstract The bioavailability of sediment bound contaminants in lentic (Hamilton Harbour, Lake Ontario) and lotic (Detroit River connecting Lakes St. Clair Erie) environments were assessed by a battery multi-trophic tests using laboratory grown organisms. Hamilton Harbour is hyper-eutrophic highly contaminated environment due to extensive urban industrial growth, while the Detroit has been implicated as major source Erie. An array sites across selected, including mouth Rouge well Trenton...

The objective of this study is to discuss selected viruses including COVID-19 and their potential elimination processes in hot springs. Studies Colombia are limited scientific discussion provides necessary information regarding these viruses. This includes studies both international levels on the following subjects: i) presence springs, ii) non- oxidative water treatment iii) strategies viruses; iv) influence results indicate that order for thermal waters guarantee originating from faecal...
