da Silva D, Gates J, ONeill S, West J, Ylitalo G
Sci Total Environ . 2022 Dec; 865:161229. PMID: 36586683
Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are ubiquitous environmental contaminants that are widely monitored in marine biota from urbanized areas, due to their toxicity to aquatic organisms. Teleost fish can quickly metabolize...

Baugh K, Robbins J, Schultz I, Ylitalo G
Environ Pollut . 2022 Nov; 316(Pt 1):120616. PMID: 36410597
Contaminant studies in cetaceans can provide information about pollutant levels and patterns in a given region. Due to the confounding effects of reproductive status and maternal offloading in females, these...

Hahn J, Van Alstyne K, Gaydos J, Wallis L, West J, Hollenhorst S, et al.
PLoS One . 2022 Sep; 17(9):e0269269. PMID: 36149869
Despite growing interest in edible seaweeds, there is limited information on seaweed chemical contaminant levels in the Salish Sea. Without this knowledge, health-based consumption advisories can not be determined for...
