Fish cell based assays for toxicity testing

Contango Strategies是加拿大水处理解决方案的领导者。他们的主要活动之一是为采矿、石油和天然气部门开发新的、可持续的水处理方法。他们工作的一个主要部分是实施新的方法，以减少储存在尾矿池（也称为油砂处理水）中的石油开采产生的尾矿的毒性。环烷酸被认为是OSPW中最重要的环境污染物。Contango正在研究这些有毒化合物的生物降解策略。他们希望通过这项研究计划解决的问题是，缺乏关于环烷酸毒性性质的数据，以及通过其处理产生的潜在分解产物。这个项目的总体目标是改编一些小说

Contango Strategies is a Canadian leader in water treatment solutions. One of their main activities is to develop new, sustainable water treatment approaches for the mining, oil and gas sectors. A major part of their work involves implementing new approaches to reduce the toxicity of the tailings generated from oil sands petroleum extraction, stored in tailings ponds, also known as oilsands process waters (OSPW). Napthenic acids are believed to be the most significant environmental contaminants in OSPW. Contango is working on strategies for the biodegradation of these toxic compounds. The problem they wish to address with this research proposal, is a lack of data regarding the nature of the toxicity of napthenic acids, and, potentially the breakdown products produced through their treatments. The overall goal of this project is to adapt some novel
