Abstract

Impacts of oil exposure on fertility potential of affected organisms can allow us to answer questions regarding serious reproductive impairment. Several reproductive hormones were used to establish exposure level impacts on targeted fish species. Enzyme linked immunoassays were performed on blood serum samples-concentrations of hormones and are reported as pg/ml of serum.

Invert a few times and allow to clot on ice for 30 minutes. Spin at 2700 rpm for 15 minutes. Remove supernatant and place in a red top cryovial. Store in -20 freezer or in LN2. When samples are removed and thawed for the first time they are aliquotted out to prevent numerous freeze/thaw cycles Sample Processing: Samples are run according to manufacturer's protocol.|DS2 Automated ELISA instrument by Dynex Technologies Inhibin A human ELISA by Beckman-Coulter||Standard curves and no substrate blanks are run with each plate. High and low controls are included on Inhibin A plates Samples are run in duplicate Sample %CV's are calculated and outliers are removed such that %CV is less than 20%|WB-PCB03-100, WB-SL7-150, WB-SL14-60, WB-SL14-100, WB-SL8-100, WB-SL9-80, WB-SL9-150, WB-SL10-40, WB-HE-265, WB-SL16-150, WB-SL12-100, WB-SL11-150, WB-SL5-200, WB-SL5-100, WB-SL4-40
