Analysis of Ottawa River suspended sediments and related water fractions for toxicity, fecal sterols and various microbiological parameters / by B.J. Dutka and R.C. McCrea.: En13-5/86-159E-PDF

"A study was initiated to investigate the potential and practicality of using a continuous flow centrifuge to concentrate suspended sediments and testing these suspended sediments for their toxicant and genotoxic activities, their microbiological densities and fecal sterol content. The results of this exploratory study, based on the extraction procedures and testing techniques used, indicate that there was no obvious advantage in using the continuous flow centrifuge to collect suspended sediments for microbiological and toxicant information"--Abstract.
