Proposed design for a program of toxicological research for the Alberta Oil Sands Environmental Research Program
Download1979
Biggs, D. F., Croft, B., Loman, A. A., Jantzie, T., Coutts, R. T.
A proposed design, and supporting information, for an integrated program of toxicological research for the Alberta Oil Sands Environmental Research Program is presented. The first major section of the report (Section 2) contains background information pertinent to the development of a research...

Cryopreserving cells for human health therapeutics is a multidisciplinary process with great complexity. Cryopreservation of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) has facilitated vascular biology research since they were first isolated in 1973 [59]; however identifying key variables to...

Large volumes of oil sands process-affected water (OSPW) are produced by the surface-mining oil sands industry in Alberta. The industry is following a no-release practice for OSPW due to its potential environmental toxicity. Both laboratory and field studies have demonstrated that OSPW is toxic...

Giles, M. A., Lawrence, S. G., Klaverkamp, J. F.
In order to conduct oil sands mining operations in the surface mining region of the Athabasca oil sands deposits, most regions require depressurization of the basal sandstone formations. The groundwater produced by depressurization operations is of poor enough quality to be toxic to fish. The...

The evaluation of toxic effects induced by exposure of mammals to oil sands process-affected water and its organic fraction
DownloadSpring 2018
Oil sands process-affected water (OSPW) produced by the surface-mining oil sands industry in Alberta, has been shown to be toxic to a variety of organisms. Much of this toxicity has been attributed to the dissolved organic compounds, primarily naphthenic acids (NAs). Under a no-release practice,...

The impact of saline waters upon freshwater biota, having special reference to the AOSERP study area, is reviewed. Available information on water quality in the AOSERP study area indicates that: the natural regional surface water quality does not appear to have any toxic effects, and chloride...

Anderson, P. D., D'Apollinia, S., Perry, S., Dick, J., Deluca, J., Spear, P.
This study was initiated in early 1976 during the early stages of the Alberta Oil Sands Environmental Research Program. The goal of the project was the establishment of criteria safeguarding fish from toxic effects of mixtures of vanadium, nickel, and phenol to fish. All three constituents are...

The role of intestinal microbiota in development of irinotecan toxicity and in toxicity reduction through dietary fibres in rats
Download2014
Baracos, Vickie, Dieleman, Levinus, Farhangfar, Arazm, Lin, Xiaoxi B., Gänzle, Michael G., Sawyer, Michael B., Valcheva, Rosica, Schieber, Andreas
CPT-11 is a drug used as chemotherapy for colorectal cancer. CPT-11 causes toxic side-effects in patients. CPT-11 toxicity has been attributed to the activity of intestinal microbiota, however, intestinal microbiota may also have protective effects in CP!-11 chemotherapy. This study aimed to...
