Sampling Design: Responding in Different Ways and WhyBioavailability: target organisms and passive sampling devices

Potential for exposure

RISK

• Adams, et al 1985, DiToro et al 1991• The PAHs most available to equilibrate are those that are freely dissolved, since these are capable of transferring from one

phase to another and passing through biological membranes.” (Wang and Fisher, 1999)• It is generally believed that the process of uptake of these neutral hydrophobic compounds is PASSIVE and controlled

DIFFUSION pressures (fugacity) because of the differential between the environment matrix and tissue concentrations. UPTAKE from water is generally accomplished by ventilation over the gill structure, although diffusion through the integument may also contribute to tissue concentrations (Landrum and Stubblefield, 1991, Douben 2003)

• “For PAHs with log Kow ≤ 5.5 the main route of uptake is through ventilated water”, …those >5.5 ingestion of food or sediment increases in importance although not well understood…( Landrum 1989, Landrum and Robbins, 1990, Meador et al 1995, Douben 2003). Oregon State University

Why Bioavailable ?

Understanding environmental factors on diseases… Must develop new bio-

Oil Spills Context and ComparisonsIt doesn’t take much seep oil to deliver a lot of PAHs

1 kilogram of oil contains as much PAH as a metric ton of coal

Crude oil PAHs vary by crude oil type, 0.2 to 7% PAHs

DW Horizon spill PAH* 5,000– 7,000 m Ton

World Trade Towers PAH 100 – 1,000 m Ton

Response design options Comparison of PSDs and fish tissue

Although not enough side-by-side studies Currently side-by-side in progress (n=75 crayfish : PSD) at our

laboratory

PSDs as biological surrogates may provide a reasonable and conservative estimate of exposure Another data set contributing to protection of human health Does not appear to significantly overestimate risk Quickly assess environmental disasters before resident

organisms respond Magnitude, range and variability assets of the technique

Community Outreach and Engagement StrategiesGoal: Provide pertinent PAH health information to be delivered using novel methods via the web.

Develop and deliver educational materials at gulf sampling locations (e.g. printed brochure)

Develop local partnerships to identify educational needs NIEHS SRP at Louisiana State University State and local organizations, including non-

governmental organizations located in Gulf states

Develop novel outreach methods for public education

Please see web sites and videos Oregon State University
