Abstract
Bioanalytical tools are cell-based bioassays that give a measure of the toxicity and presence of known and unknown chemicals in complex environmental samples. Improved detection of bioactive chemicals in water will improve risk assessment methods and inform future water management options, particularly in the context of water reclaimed from impaired sources such as wastewater or stormwater. The project advances the science and application of bioanalytical tools for water quality assessment.
Originally funded as WERF project Reuse-10-07.
