Accumulation of fish mixed function oxygenase inducers by semipermeable membrane devices in river water and effluents : Athabasca River, August and September, 1994 / by J. L. Parrot et al.: R71-49/3-83E

This study used SPMDs to identify industrial effluents along the Athabasca River system that induce MFO activity in fish cell lines. These devices provided samples of known exposure time in effluents and river waters by simultaneously sampling the effluent stream and the river upstream and downstream of the mixing zone at each site. SPMDs were deployed for two weeks at one major town and five industrial wastewater sites (four pulp mills and one oil sands facility) on the Athabasca River, and one pulp mill on the Lesser Slave River.--Study perspective
