Journal ArticleDOI

The bioavailability of chemicals in soil for earthworms.

TL;DR: In order to be used in the site-specific ecological risk assessment of chemicals, effects concentrations must be developed from laboratory toxicity tests based on exposure estimates utilizing techniques that measure the bioavailable fraction of chemicals in soil, not total chemical concentrations.
Journal ArticleDOI

Trophic magnification factors: Considerations of ecology, ecosystems, and study design

TL;DR: Empirical TMFs are likely to be useful for understanding the food web biomagnification potential of chemicals, but may be less useful in species- and site-specific risk assessments, where the goal is to predict absolute contaminant concentrations in organisms in relation to threshold levels.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Bioavailability of Chemicals in Soil for Earthworms

TL;DR: In this article, the effects of modifying factors on bioavailability of chemicals to earthworms are investigated. But, the authors do not consider the effect of soil physical/chemical characteristics on chemical bioavailability.
Journal ArticleDOI

Use of trophic magnification factors and related measures to characterize bioaccumulation potential of chemicals

TL;DR: Overall, TMFs provide valuable information regarding bioaccumulation potential and should be incorporated into regulatory decision making following the suggestions outlined in this article.
