This report briefly synthesizes technical literature on ecological and toxicological aspects of inorganic and organic tin compounds in the environment, with emphasis on fishery and wildlife resources. Subtopics include sources and uses, environmental chemistry, background concentrations in biological and nonbiological samples, lethal and sublethal effects in aquatic organisms, birds, and mammals, and proposed criteria for the protection of sensitive organisms. parag Keywords: contaminants; toxicity; fishes; wildlife; natural resources; invertebrates; aquatic organisms; tin; organotins; heavy metals; metabolism; sublethal effects.

Can Americans continue to add more seafood to their diets without fear of illness or even death? Seafood-caused health problems are not widespread, but consumers are at risk from seafood-borne microbes and toxinsâ€"with consequences that can range from mild enteritis to fatal illness. At a time when legislators and consumer groups are seeking a sound regulatory approach, Seafood Safety presents a comprehensive set of practical recommendations for ensuring the safety of the seafood supply. This volume presents the first-ever overview of the field, covering seafood consumption patterns, where and how seafood contamination occurs, and the effectiveness of regulation. A wealth of technical information is presented on the sources of contaminationâ€"microbes, natural toxins, and chemical pollutantsâ€"and their effects on human health. The volume evaluates methods used for risk assessment and inspection sampling.
This report briefly synthesizes technical literature on ecological and toxicological aspects of arsenic in the environment, with special reference to natural resources. It is divided into a number of subtopics: sources, fate, and uses; chemical and biochemical properties; essentiality, synergism, and antagonism; background concentrations in biological and nonbiological samples; lethal and sublethal effects, including carcinogenesis, tertogenesis, and mutagenesis; and proposed criteria and research needs for the protection of sensitive organisms. parag Keywords: contaminants; toxicity; fishes; wildlife; natural resources; invertebrates; arsenic; organoarsenicals; carcinogenesis; teratogenesis; mutagenesis; metabolism.
