Description The goal of this study is to evaluate the most appropriate and effective methods for measuring rubber-derived contaminants in water, sediment, and biota and their effects on aquatic life. Research is needed to understand the occurrence and persistence of 6PPD-quinone (6PPD-q) in salmon-bearing streams to help develop urban watershed solutions to protect salmon habitat. Direct and indirect methods are proposed to measure 6PPD-q and its effects on salmon-bearing streams. Direct methods include measuring 6PPD-q in water, sediments, sorbent media, and bioassays. Indirect methods use bioassessments to measure stream health. This project will guide future 6PPD-q studies and coordinate our research with natural resource management partners.
