| Abstract: | Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) are a family of synthetic chemicals consisting of carbon, hydrogen, and chlorine atoms. PCB contamination is still prevalent in many areas of the country, including the Ohio River basin (see "On the Web" for more in formation on PCB contamination within the Ohio River). Divide the phenolphthalein solution into small dropper bottles and refer to the solution as a "PCB test solution." Third, the sample set is insufficient to conclude if sunfish are affected by or resistant to the contamination because the sample set includes only upstream samples. [Extracted from the article] |
