Toxicology

Safety Assessments for Personal Care Product Ingredients Collected and compiled data on toxicity of personal care product ingredients from publicly available data sources (e.g., European Chemicals Agency [ECHA], Personal Care Products Council, European Food Safety Authority).  Utilized these data in conjunction with potential exposure calculations to create safety assessments.
High Throughput Screening for Personal Care Product Ingredients Screened more than 100 ingredients for biodegradation and acute aquatic toxicity using a variety of publicly available data sources (e.g., ECHA, Computational Toxicology and Methods Development Lab, National Industrial Chemicals Notification and Assessment Scheme).  Advised working group on standard testing procedures to improve assessment quality.
Support for the Personal Care Products Council with FDA Sunscreen Data Submission Reviewed and compiled findings on human and nonhuman mammalian metabolites of sunscreen active ingredients. Communicated testing needs with subcontractors and solicited quotes for required work.

Litigation Support

Desalination Plant Environmental Litigation Support, Corpus Christi, Texas Collected data pertinent to desalination effluent impacts in the Aransas Channel including whole effluent toxicity test results, salinity tolerance, and information on existing reverse-osmosis desalination projects. Summarized information using graphics and tables to effectively communicate findings.
Exposure Assessment Regarding PCBs, U.S. Assisted with analysis and visualization regarding potential exposure to PCBs via inhalation of indoor air. Supported preparation of expert reports.

Biomonitoring

Integrated Risk Information System (IRIS) Noncancer PCB Toxicology Support Provided insight pertaining to EPA’s Handbook for IRIS Assessments by summarizing key topics and identifying areas of insufficient guidance.
Berry’s Creek Superfund Site, Meadowlands, New Jersey Completed fish sampling in Berry’s Creek and surrounding tributaries of the Hackensack River in support of residue biomonitoring collection.
PCB Litigation Support, St. Regis, New York Reviewed literature on human PCB exposure and determined common endpoints and results to support ongoing litigation.
Toxicity Testing of Oxybenzone on a Hard Coral, Solomons, Maryland Completed full project design, implementation, and analysis of multiple exposures of oxybenzone on the hard coral Galaxea fascicularis.  Performed chemical analysis of exposure concentrations and a variety of biological endpoints (e.g., mortality, photosynthetic pigment content, buoyant weight) as well as statistical analyses and model fitting of dose-response curves.
Standard Aquatic Toxicity Testing, Wareham, Massachusetts Conducted acute and chronic aquatic toxicity tests following EPA and OECD guidance under Good Laboratory Practice conditions.  Led various supporting activities such as standard test species culturing (primarily Pimephales promelas), peer review, and data analysis.
