The scientific literature was reviewed and acute toxicity data were selected using st
13、rict quality control and quaity assurance criteria. The god of this effort was to compile, analyze, and present an overview of these data by oil product* and taxonomic group. There were a variety of data gaps and problems in comparing conventional LCSO values between studies. Methodological differen
14、ces between data sets were an important consideration, and special care must be used in predicting biological impacts using these acute toxicity data. Very little published data exists for gasoline, jet fuel, and lube oil product groups. Additionally, acute toxicity data were sparse for the algal ta
15、xonomic group. Majority of data were available for the diesel, crude and bunker oil groups. Only oil product toxicity data were utilized in this study and not oil product component data (e.g., naphthalenes, benzene, etc.). Statistical comparisons were performed at a conservative level in order to de
16、termine significance. in all cases, the number of data points available in each comparison should be considered when reviewing the statistical results. Additionally, oil products were ranked based upon their median toxicity values, and a relative ranking scale is provided. Relative product toxicity
17、rankings are based on comparisons of median toxicity values and differences shown may or may not be statistically significant. A limited level of effort was applied for providing a relative persistence scale for oil products released into the environment. It should be emphasized that this analysis h
18、as a number of quaiifications. Crudes and oil products are characterized with a broad range of physiochemical data. An equilibrium-based model was used to estimate relative persistence and differentiate between classes of petroleum products (independent of site- and spill-specific information). The
19、scope of this effort did not allow specific consideration of several important environmental parameters that influence the fate of spilled petroleum products (e.g., wind speed, wave energy, currents, water depth, and habitat). This treatment is not compound specific. *Note: The term “oil product(s)“
20、 is used in this report to include crude oil and oil products.

35、rida) have initiated tabular methods and formulas for assessing natural resource damages associated with oil product or crude oil spills within their jurisdictions. An important aspect in each of the state initiatives deals with the toxicity and persistence of the spilled hydrocarbons. A central asp
36、ect of toxicity evaluations are the LC50 values used to denote acute toxicity of oil products. How reliable are LC5Os for ranking oil product toxicity? The quality and reliability of the values used for denoting oil product toxicity are the main topics of this investigation. In addition, a more limi
37、ted effort was made to compare the relative persistence of oil products released into the environment. Finally, a discussion regarding the relative roles of product toxicity and persistence in predicting biological injury is presented. The results of this effort are presented in 3 chapters as follow
38、s: CHAPTER 1 : CHAPTER 2: CHAPTER 3: REVIEW AND RANKING OF TOXICITY VALUES ANALYSIS AND RANKING OF OIL PRODUCT PERSISTENCE OIL PRODUCT TOXICITY AND PERSISTENCE: A PERSPECTIVE Chapter 1: Approximately 8,000 references on the fate and effects of oil products in aquatic systems were screened. The major
39、ity of the selected articles were published in the mid to late 1970s. While there was an adequate number of high quality articles, comparability between papers was limited due to variability in test methodologies. In order to determine the relative impact of the methodological differences on LC50 va
40、lues, key method parameters were selected and added to a computerized database. This allowed investigators to sort on key methodological differences between studies and evaluate if and how laboratory methods impacted the actual LC50 values. The final database contained 748 toxicity values. The major
41、ity of the data was on crude oils (55%) and diesel (3 1%). Gasoline, jet fuel, and lube oil comprised less than 7% of the total number of toxicity values in the database. Invertebrate data comprised 65.4% of the data in the database. Fish comprised 26.6% of the data, while algae comprised only 8% of
42、 the data. As the basic data on methods and results were analyzed it became apparent that one of the major factors in influencing LC50 values was the presence or absence of free product in the test chambers. Since the presence or absence of free product in the test chamber was found to have the larg
43、est impact on reported LC50 values, it was maintained as the major sorting factor throughout this study. In many cases, methodological procedures had an effect on the resulting LC50 values. Reported LC50 values for the same oil product often differed significantly based on: whether the test chambers
44、 were open or closed, if the test was conducted in freshwater or saltwater, and how long oil water solutions were mixed prior to adding test organisms. Finally it was found that LCSOs ES- 1 API PUBL*4594 95 07322C10 0542896 928 H calculated and reported for similar products were very different based
45、 on which “concentration“ values were used in the fmal calculations. Some were based on dissolved hydrocarbons from single oi1:water ratio test solutions, others were based on multiple ratio test solutions, others were based on tests that used measured concentration data from individual test chamber
46、s, and fmally some were based on nominal concentrations. The importance of methods was expected and investigators planned from the outset to utilize a database that was designed to allow comparisons of toxicity values developed and based on similar methods. The database was developed into a computer
47、 program referred to as “OILTOX“. With the help of this program, the user can find, review, sort, and print out individual LC50 values used in this study. The user is also able to query the database and ask for data on select test species, products, and toxicity test method characteristics. The prog
48、ram also allows the user to link the individual LC50 value to a specific reference. The program does not include every possible LC50 value available since certain quality criteria were used prior to deciding whether data should be included in this study. The database was provided to API as a separat
49、e diskette along with a brief users manual. Median toxicity values were computed for each oil product and taxonomic group once the data were sorted by the absence and presence of free product in the test solutions. In all cases for a given product type, tests conducted with “free product absent“ solutions reported lower LC50 values when compared to respective “free product present“ LC50 values. Approximately 75% of the data records were for “free product absent“ studies while 25% of the data records were for “free product present“ studies. Suitable algal data sets were not found
