Life history as a source of variation for persistent organic pollutant (POP) patterns in a bottlenose dolphin community resident to Sarasota Bay, FL

April 1, 2010
Author(s)
Jennifer Yordy, John R. Kucklick, Randall S. Wells, Brian C. Balmer, Lori Schwacke, Teresa Rowles
Bottlenose dolphins (Tursiops truncatus) are prone to accumulating complex mixtures of persistent organic pollutants (POPs). While variations in POP patterns have been previously observed for populations separated across regional and fine-scale geographic

Marine Mammal Blubber Reference and Control Materials for Use in the Determination of Halogenated Organic Compounds and Fatty Acids

The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), in support of the National Oceanic & Atmospheric Administrations Marine Mammal Health and Stranding Response Program (NOAA/MMHSRP), conducts annual interlaboratory comparison exercises for the

Organohalogen contaminants in blood of Kemp's ridley (Lepidochelys kempii) and green sea turtles (Chelonia mydas) from the Gulf of Mexico

December 9, 2009
Author(s)
Robert R. Swarthout, Jennifer Lynch, Margie Peden-Adams, Andre Landry, Patricia Fair, John Kucklick
The threat that exposure to organohalogen (OH) contaminants poses to endangered populations of Kemp's ridley (Lepidochelys kempii) and green sea turtles (Chelonia mydas) is not well understood, partly because few OH data are available. Blood samples from

Comparison of five extraction methods for measuring PCBs, PBDEs, organochlorine pesticides, and lipid content in serum

Author(s)
Jennifer M. Lynch, Aurore Guichard, Jennifer Yordy, Michele M. Schantz, John R. Kucklick, Robert R. Swarthout, Brianna K. Carlson
An increasing number of studies use blood obtained non-invasively to monitor organohalogen contaminants. However, blood can be a difficult tissue to analyze for organohalogen pollutants due to interferences from co-extracted proteins. We compared five
