Evaluating the toxicity of sea-dumped conventional and chemical munition degradation products to fish and human cells using a combination of cell viability assays by João Barbosa, Colin R. Janssen, Marijke Neyts, Koen Parmentier, Frédéric Laduron, Kris Geukens, Philippe François, Jana Asselman

“…The research examines three CWA&RC (1,4-oxathiane, 1,4-dithiane, thiodiglycol) and four E&RC (2,4,6-trinitrotoluene, tetryl, 1,3-dinitrobenzene, picric acid) using the RTgill-W1 cell line (rainbow trout gill cells) as a proxy for fish toxicity and human cell lines (Caco2 and HepG2) to model potential human exposure via contaminated seafood. …”
