Pick the Sample Matrix, Result Value Units, and Result Basis in which you want your results to be displayed. EIM will convert Result Value Units to the type you pick for like Sample Matrices and Result Bases. For example, if you choose a Sample Matrix of Water and Result Value Units of mg/l, and some results are in Water ug/l, the ug/l results will be converted to mg/l. If some results have a Sample Matrix of Solid/Sediment, then they will not be included in your water dataset.

1, 2, etc. Batch numbers are typically in a sequential series (1, 2, etc.) but don’t have to be. Batch number is an ID, not a count. They might be ID numbers from a lab report. It is very important to group controls, references, and samples into the correct batches. Batches represent tests, references, and controls tested in the same conditions. Typically, bioassay data will consist of more than one batch, indicating that each group of bioassays/samples was tested in a different area or at a different time. Batches are usually identifiable as each begins with a control and reference sample.

Valid Values: Initial - Initial Values - Measurements taken prior to the start of a test. The Bioassay Category = Initial must be used together with Bioassay Endpoint = INIT. The two most common initial measurements for sediment bioassays are initial dry weight or/and ash free dry weight for BIOM and GROW endpoint or stocking density of the test organisms for ABMO endpoint. Negative - Negative Control Sample - A clean (non-contaminated) sample collected from a known, pristine location outside the study area, with a matrix similar to the native matrix of the test organism. Provides (controls for) normal/natural effects data (e.g. mortality, growth) for the bioassay organism tested. Only certain fields are required for negative controls. Fill out only the YELLOW color-coded fields in your template - and conditional fields if pertinent. Positive - Positive Control Sample - Laboratory sample containing a known series of concentrations (100%, 50%, 25%...) of a contaminant such as Cadmium Chloride (CdCl2). Provides information on how sensitive a bioassay organism is to a known contaminant relative to previous populations of that test species. Generally used to reflect the fitness of the bioassay organism test population. Only certain fields are required for positive controls. Fill out only the YELLOW color-coded fields in your template - -and conditional fields if pertinent. Reference - Reference Sample - A clean (non-contaminated) field sample collected from a location with a matrix similar to the Test Sample. Provides non-contaminant-related effects data (e.g. mortality, growth) due to intrinsic matrix conditions which are not native to the selected bioassay organism. In sediments this would include grain size, ammonia, sulfides, TOC (= 5%), bacterial and fungal loading, and ionic clay-binding, etc. Fill out the YELLOW and ORANGE color-coded fields in your template. Test - Test Sample - Field sample from the environment in question. Bioassay organisms are exposed to various dilutions of this sample to measure observable adverse impacts. Fill out the YELLOW and ORANGE color-coded fields in your template. Note: If Bioassay Category is Reference or Test, corresponding chemistry data in the Result Spreadsheet, Sample Use column, must also use valid values of Reference or Test, respectively.

QA2 For bioassay data that were not validated at QA1 or QA2, leave this field blank and specify the QA Assessment Level (1-5) at the Study Level in EIM. QA1: For sediment bioassay investigations conducted under SMS (Sediment Management Standards) and sediment dredging projects;
QA2: More rigorous bioasay QA for sediment investigations used to develop sediment AET values and SMS numerical chemical criteria. MORE INFO: QA1: Level of quality assurance review acceptable for most sediment bioassay investigations conducted under the Washington State Sediment Management Standards (SMS), as well as for sediment sampling and analyses conducted to determine the suitability of dredged material for unconfined, open-water disposal at a Washington State Dredged Material Management Program (DMMP) site. A QA1 review of bioassay data covers field collection and handling, completeness, data presentation and reporting elements, and evaluates the acceptability of test results for positive controls, negative controls, reference sediment, replicates, and experimental conditions (temperature, salinity, pH, dissolved oxygen). Detailed guidance on QA1 review procedures is provided in PTI (1989a) and is available from Ecology. QA2: More vigorous level of quality assurance review appropriate for sediment bioassay data that are to be used for the development of AET values. Also recommended in cases where the data may be used in litigation. This level of review ensures that the observed bioassay responses are not confounded by extraneous factors such as improper sample collection and processing, variable organism sensitivity, suboptimal experimental conditions, and erroneous endpoint determinations. QA2 review procedures are described in PTI (1989b), also available from Ecology. REFERENCES PTI, 1989a.
