## Abstract A simple method to determine the availability of sedimentโsorbed organic contaminants was developed and validated. For 10 polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, 4 polychlorinated biphenyls, and 9 chlorobenzenes in 6 sediments, we measured the fraction extracted by Tenaxยฎ in 6 and 30 h. These
The objective of this study was to determine whether sediment ingestion or water ventilation was the primary route of uptake for benzo[a]pyrene (BaP) in the gizzard shad (Dorosoma cepedianum), a detritivorous fish. Two experiments were conducted in which fish were exposed to sediments spiked with 1
