Microscale Toxicity Identification Evaluation (TIE) for interstitial water of estuarine sediments affected by multiple sources of pollution
2022 - ALVES, ALINE V.; FERRAZ, MARIANA A.; MORENO, BEATRIZ B.; NOBRE, CAIO R.; ANTUNES, RENATA M.; PUSCEDDU, FABIO H.; BORDON, ISABELLA C. da C.L.; FAVARO, DEBORAH I.T.; COTRIM, MARYCEL E.B.; CHOUERI, RODRIGO B.
Estuaries in the world are affected by different contamination sources related to urbanisation and port/industrial activities. Identifying the substances responsible for the environmental toxicity in estuaries is challenging due to the multitude of stressors, both natural and anthropogenic. The Toxicity Identification and Evaluation (TIE) is a suitable way of determining causes of toxicity of sediments, but it poses difficulties since its application is labour intensive and time consuming. The aimof this study is to evaluate the diagnosis provided by a TIE based on microscale embryotoxicity tests with interstitial water (IW) to identify toxicants in estuarine sediments affected by multiple stressors. TIE showed toxicity due to different combinations of metals, apolar organic compounds, ammonia and sulphides, depending on the contamination source closest to the sampling station. The microscale TIE was able to discern different toxicants on sites subject to different contamination sources. There is good agreement between the results indicated in the TIE and the chemical analyses in whole sediment, although there are some disagreements, either due to the sensitivity of the test used, or due to the particularities of the use of interstitial water to assess the sediment toxicity. The improvement of TIE methods focused on identifying toxicants in multiple-stressed estuarine areas are crucial to discern contamination sources and subsidise management strategies.
Top down arsenic uncertainty measurement in water and sediments from Guarapiranga dam (Brazil)
2018 - FAUSTINO, M.G.; LANGE, C.N.; MONTEIRO, L.R.; FURUSAWA, H.A.; MARQUES, J.R.; STELLATO, T.B.; SOARES, S.M.V.; SILVA, T.B.S.C. da; SILVA, D.B. da; COTRIM, M.E.B.; PIRES, M.A.F.
Total arsenic measurements assessment regarding legal threshold demands more than average and standard deviation approach. In this way, analytical measurement uncertainty evaluation was conducted in order to comply with legal requirements and to allow the balance of arsenic in both water and sediment compartments. A top-down approach for measurement uncertainties was applied to evaluate arsenic concentrations in water and sediments from Guarapiranga dam (São Paulo, Brazil). Laboratory quality control and arsenic interlaboratory tests data were used in this approach to estimate the uncertainties associated with the methodology.
