9408698 Butterworth This Americas Program award will partially support a symposium in the field of biomonitoring technologies. The symposium, organized by Dr. F. M. Butterworth, Oakland University, Michigan, Dr. Dieter Reidel, University of Windsor, Ontario, and Dr. Judith Guzman Rivera of the Instituto Nacional de Investigaciones Nucleares (ININ) in Mexico City, will take place in conjunction with the annual conference of the International Association of Great Lakes Research, in Windsor, Ontario, June 1994. The major objectives of the symposium are to identify deficiencies and problems with current monitoring strategies; to present novel state-of-the art biomonitoring methods and applications, and to stimulate new associations and collaborations between North American Free Trade (NAFTA) countries to respond to the challenges of increased pollution rates. Routine monitoring using biological test systems is critical in the surveillance of aqueous environments to identify hazards to human health. The traditional method of using biomonitors in conjunction with chemical analysis to detect pathologies caused by toxic contaminants is hampered by the presence in the environment of complex mixtures of these pollutants. There is, therefore, an urgent need to accelerate research in developing improved and new systems to detect new hazards resulting from increased industrial development of the NAFTA countries. The work presented and the standards recommended at this symposium will be published as a reference resource for the benefit of the scientific community, regulatory agencies, and the public. ***

9408698巴特沃思这个美洲计划奖将部分支持生物监测技术领域的研讨会。 这次研讨会由F. M.密歇根州奥克兰大学的巴特沃思、安大略省温莎大学的Dieter Reidel博士和墨西哥城国家核研究所的Judith Guzman里维拉博士将于1994年6月在安大略温莎与国际五大湖研究协会年会同时举行。 研讨会的主要目标是确定目前监测战略的不足之处和问题;提出新的最先进的生物监测方法和应用，并刺激北美自由贸易区（NAFTA）国家之间的新协会和合作，以应对污染率上升的挑战。 使用生物测试系统进行常规监测对于监测水环境以确定对人类健康的危害至关重要。 使用生物监测器结合化学分析来检测由有毒污染物引起的病理的传统方法受到这些污染物的复杂混合物在环境中的存在的阻碍。 因此，迫切需要加快研究，开发更好的新系统，以发现北美自由贸易区国家工业发展增加所造成的新危害。 本次研讨会上提出的工作和建议的标准将作为参考资源出版，以造福科学界、监管机构和公众。 ***
