Environmental DNA (eDNA) as a tool to detect Arctic grayling and their habitat preferences in the Northwest Territories, Canada by Heather D. Veilleux, Melissa D. Misutka, Morag D. McPherson, Peter A. Cott, Greg G. Goss, Mark Poesch, Chris N. Glover

“…Environmental deoxyribonucleic acid (eDNA) assays represent a non-invasive approach for biomonitoring. To assess Arctic grayling (Thymallus arcticus, Pallas, 1776) populations in the Little Nahanni watershed of Northwest Territories, Canada, an eDNA assay that has been previously validated for use in fish of the Beringia lineage was used in conjunction with traditional survey methods (i.e., electrofishing). …”

Quantification of 3‑chloro-7‑hydroxy-4-methylcoumarin (CHMC) in urine as a biomarker of coumaphos exposure by high-performance liquid chromatography-fluorescence detection (HPLC-FL... by Zachary G. Robbins, Cynthia A. Striley, Lee Wugofski

“…The USDA Cattle Fever Tick Eradication Program requires regular blood draws to measure depressed cholinesterase levels as biomarkers of effect of long-term coumaphos exposure, however, the gap between blood draws may miss intermittent high exposures. Urine biomonitoring can supplement blood draws, offering personnel a sensitive and cost-effective method to monitor short-term exposures. …”
