CNT Quantification

Relationships of temperature and CNT mass (SWCNT, MWCNT, MWCNT-COOH) were developed for three environmental matrices (sand, soil and sludge) spiked with known amounts of different types of CNTs that were then irradiated in a microwave at low energies (70-149 W) for a short time (15-30 sec). Temperature rises data were recorded for CNT loaded environmental samples with excess of inorganic/organic carbon and other carbonaceous nanomaterials (C60, GAC and GO).

MulticyclicAromaticHydrocarbons rtER Vtg_Kolanczyk_A-bzkz_DataSet 20180828

A representative group of multicyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (MAHC) which can be further classified as bridged-ring (bridged-MAHC) or fused-ring (fused-MAHC) were examined for their ability to interact with the estrogen receptor of rainbow trout (rtER) in a hepatic cytosolic estrogen receptor competitive binding assay (cyto rtERαβ) and the vitellogenin (Vtg) mRNA gene activation liver slice assay. All five fused-MAHCs; naphthalene (NAFT), fluorene (FE), Fluoranthene (FAT), pyrene (PY), and 9,10-dihydroanthracene (DAC) had no estrogenic activity in the in vitro assays used. Five of the eight bridged-MAHCs; triphenylethylene (3PE), o-terphenyl (OTP), triphenylmethane (TPM), 1,1-diphenylethylene (DPE), and cis-stilbene (CSB) were estrogenic in these assays. The additional three bridged-MAHC’s; trans-stilbene (TSB), tetraphenylethylene (4PE), and 4,4-di-tertbutylphenyl (DtBB) were determined to be non-binders due to isomeric configuration, solubility limitation, and possible steric hinderance. This first report of the rtER-binding of bridged-MAHCs in fish demonstrates binding for a class of chemicals normally not thought of as having an affinity for the estrogen receptor and further supports the versatility or promiscuity of ER ligand selectivity.

Validation of a Novel Cell Culture Exposure System (CCES) for Studying the Toxicity of Volatile Chemicals at the Air-Liquid Interface

We developed a cell culture exposure system (CCES) to expose cells at the air-liquid interface (ALI) to volatile chemicals. We characterized the CCES by exposing indigo dye-impregnated filters inside each culture well to 125 ppb ozone (O3) for 1 h at flow rates of 5 and 25 mL/min/well; the reaction of O3 with an indigo dye produces a fluorescence product. We observed a 5-fold increase in fluorescence at 25 mL/min/well, suggesting higher flows were more effective. We then exposed primary human bronchial lung epithelial cells (HBECs) to 0.3 ppm acrolein for 2 h at 3, 5 and 25 mL/min/well and compared our results against well-established Human Studies Facility in vitro exposure chambers (HSF Chambers) at the U.S. EPA. We measured lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) release, and transcript changes of heme oxygenase-1 (HMOX1) and interleukin-8 (IL8) at 0, 1, and 24 h post-exposure. Comparing responses from the HSF Chamber to the CCES, differences were only observed at 1 h post-exposure for HMOX1. Here, the HSF Chamber produced a ~6-fold increase in HMOX1 while the CCES at 3 and 5 mL/min/well produced a ~1.7-fold increase. Operating the CCES at 25 mL/min/well produced a ~4.5-fold increase; slightly lower than the HSF Chamber. Our results suggest that higher flow rates in the CCES were more effective at delivering the gas to the cells, and this was further validated by our comparison against a well-established in vitro exposure system. Further testing is required to explore the sensitivity of the CCES with other chemicals.
