Develop Standard Operating Procedures for the Collection, Storage, and Extraction of Aqueous Samples for in Vitro Bioanalytical Tools Screening

This project developed standard operating procedures for the collection, storage, preservation, extraction, and concentration of aqueous samples for subsequent CEC screening using in vitro bioanalytical tools (IVBs). This project was part of a larger initiative with WRF’s partners (Southern California Coastal Water Research Project and the California State Water Resource Control Board) to facilitate the implementation of bioanalytical tools among water quality managers. The goal of this project was to offer robust sample processing procedures applicable for various IVBs and water matrices.

The final deliverables are available on the Southern California Coastal Water Research Project website:

• Development and Standardization of Bioanalytical Screening Tools Part I – Final Report
• Development and Standardization of Bioanalytical Screening Tools Part II – Protocols for Laboratory and Data Analysis
  

Originally funded as WERF project Reuse-14-15.
