Abstract

This document and accompanying 3.5 inch diskette provide a review of the literature (post 1970) on the toxicity of crudes and oil products in aquatic environments. Some 748 toxicity values for fish, invertebrates and algae are assembled into a database - OILTOX.LC values can be identified as well as information on taxonomic groups and toxicity endpoints of interest. Key methodological aspects of toxicity tests can be made as well as determinations of which test procedures have a significant impact on results. Users need 640K RAM, DOS 2.0 or higher and at least a 2MB hard disk. Text may be downloaded onto a diskette and stored as a file or printed.
