    Abstract: The apparent 1-octanol/water partition coefficient (log P App ) of pentachlorophenol (PCP) varies in non-linear function with pH of the aqueous solution. In the range of pH 1.2 to 13.5 extreme values of log P App 4.84 at pH 1.2 and log P App 1.3 at pH 10.5 were observed. In the alkaline regime, log P App increases strongly with the ionic strength. The ion-corrected partition coefficient of PCP was found to be log P 5.05 in good agreement with literature values.

    Abstract: This study shows that persistent organochlorine contaminants, including PCBs, reached higher concentrations in lamprey of the St. Lawrence River basin 40 years ago. A comparison was made of the concentrations of 22 organochlorine pesticides and 93 polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB) congeners in formalin-preserved lamprey ammocoetes collected between 1947–1950 and in 1990 in the St-François and Ste-Anne rivers, St. Lawrence River basin, Québec. Eight pesticides (β-BHC, α-Chlordane, γ-Chlordane, p,p′-DDD, o,p′-DDE, p,p′-DDE, p,p′-DDT, and Heptachlor) reached higher concentrations in the earlier period, with Mirex being the only pesticide found in higher concentrations in 1990. Seventeen PCB congeners (24(27), 28, 98(84), 101, 110(77), 128, 129, 141, 149, 151, 158, 174, 177, 180, 183, 187(182), and 198) had higher concentrations in the 1947–1950 period compared with 1990. A significant inverse relationship was found between the concentration of the various PCB congeners and sampling date. The concentrations of DDT have decreased significantly, while its metabolites, DDD and DDE, have increased significantly over the last 40 years.

    Abstract: Three species of fish, caught at various distances from a kraft pulp and paper mill effluent discharge in Nipigon Bay, were analyzed for organic contaminants. Fishes from all sites contained residues of polychlorinated biphenyls and DDE. Most samples were also contaminated with hexachlorobenzene and several samples contained phthalic acid esters.From sampling sites close to the mill discharge, dehydroabietic acid was observed in one extract of each of the three fish species investigated. Two isomers of tetrachlorobenzene and one trichlorobenzene isomer were identified in a longnose sucker (Catostomus catostomus) extract from the vicinity of the mill outfall.

    Abstract: Published data on the toxicity of metal ions to aquatic biota, in particular Daphnia magna, were analyzed for their correlation with ion specific physico-chemical parameters. Significant correlations were obtained for three groups of ions with similar electron configurations in the outer orbitals. Group I ions include Na (I), Be (II), Ba (II), Al (III), and Cr (VI) with inert gas-like electron configurations; group II ions include Cr (III), Mn (II), Fe (III), Co (II), Ni (II), Cu (II), Zn (II), As (V), Cd (II), Pt (IV), Au (III), and Hg (II) with partially or completely filled d electron orbitals; group III ions include Sn (II), As (III), Se (IV), and Pb (II), with filled d and s, but unfilled p electron orbitals. The toxicity of an ion within a group can be calculated from the general equation[Formula: see text]where pT is the negative logarithm of a metal ion concentration with a certain toxicity in mol∙L −1 ; AN is the metal's atomic number; ΔIP is the difference between the ion's ionization potential with the oxidation number (OX) and the ionization potential of the next lower oxidation number (OX − 1) in electron volts (eV); and ΔE 0 is the absolute value of the electrochemical potential between the ion and the first stable reduced state. The values for the constants a 0 , a 1 , and a 2 depend on the group of ions, the biota, and the particular toxic effect determined. The equation is applied to predict the toxicities of other ions under similar test conditions.Key words: toxicity, metals, ions, correlations, Daphnia magna, aquatic tests

    Abstract: A detailed statistical evaluation of the levels of organochlorine contaminants in sea lamprey (Petromyzon marinus) and simultaneously caught lake whitefish (Coregonus clupeaformis) from the northern parts of Lakes Huron and Michigan is described. The analysis of residue ratios, both within each species and between, allows an immediate recognition of rising and falling trends of contamination with a high degree of confidence. This improvement over the conventional method of monitoring one species over several years is accomplished with comparatively little effort in sampling and chemical contaminant analysis. The described technique exploits the unique biological relationship of the lamprey and its host and is also based on the significantly shorter lifespan of the (adult) lamprey compared to that of the host. Rising trends in PCB and DDE contamination and declining trends for the levels of DDT, dieldrin, endrin, chlordane, hexachlorobenzene, heptachlorepoxide, and α-hexachlorocyclohexane were observed in 1978, the year of collection.Key words: organochlorine, contamination, trend, ratio, Petromyzon marinus, Coregonus clupeaformis

    Abstract: Lamprey ammocoetes were determined to be as suitable as adult bivalve molluscs for monitoring persistent organochlorine contaminants in the freshwater environment. Ammocoetes of four lamprey species and adults of three bivalve mollusc species, collected from the same seven rivers of the St. Lawrence River basin in Québec, were assayed for 21 organochlorine pesticides and for polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB) congeners. All organochlorine compounds assayed were detected in one or more of the 15 lamprey samples whereas Aldrin, β-BHC, and PCB congeners 1, 3, 12(13), 29, 54, 189, 191, and 199 were not detected in any of the nine bivalve samples. Nine pesticides (Aldrin, Dieldrin, γ-BHC, α-Chlordane, γ-Chlordane, o,p′-DDD, p,p′-DDD, p,p′-DDT, and a-Endosulfan) had higher concentrations in the lampreys. PCB congeners 167(185) and 209 had higher concentrations in bivalves. PCBs accounted for 96.6–99.4% of the organochlorine lipid burden in bivalves, but only 33.4–76.8% in lampreys. On average, ammocoetes had 44 times more lipids per body dry weight than did bivalves. The differences observed in concentrations and types of organochlorine compounds found in the two taxa may be due to differences in the amounts (observed) and types (postulated) of body lipids they each possess.
