Hazard relationships 6PPDQ and tire-derived chemicals
Project ID: G25AC00331 [project-data-part-1] Initial Funding: $228,000 Total Funding: $228,000 [project-data-part-2] Abstract: This project will determine the extent to which 6PPD-quinone contributes acute and sublethal toxicity in real world mixtures in the environment. The following activities will be conducted: Acute toxicity testing of collected roadway runoff, tire particle leachate, and 6PPD-quinone and the same concentration…
Bioavailability and tissue distribution of 6PPDQ and other organic pollutants
Project ID: G25AC00319 [project-data-part-1] Initial Funding: $228,000 Total Funding: $228,000 [project-data-part-2] Abstract: This study will help to understand the fate of tire rubber derived chemicals, especially the highly toxic 6PPDQ, after they enter water and fish are exposed to them. During fish exposure studies, the recipient will test the exposure water to understand the degradation…
