Zusammenfassung:Reference and actual sewage sludge samples were analyzed by gas chromatography mass spectrometry to determine the concentrations of PAHs, and the contribution of the PAHs to overall toxicity was assessed using ToxAlert super( registered ) 100, while utilizes the liquid-dried luminescent bacteria, Vibrio fischeri. The bioassay protocol is outlined. Highest concentrations were found for phenanthrene. Increasing PAH concentrations in the sludge samples were discerned by ToxAlert super( registered ) 100 results.
