TI  - Evaluating the Relationship between Equilibrium Passive Sampler Uptake and 
      Aquatic Organism Bioaccumulation.
PG  - 11437-11451
AB  - This Critcal Review evaluates passive sampler uptake of hydrophobic organic 
      contaminants (HOCs) in water column and interstitial water exposures as a 
      surrogate for organism bioaccumulation. Fifty-seven studies were found where both 
      passive sampler uptake and organism bioaccumulation were measured and 19 of these 
      investigations provided direct comparisons relating passive sampler uptake and 
      organism bioaccumulation. Polymers compared included low-density polyethylene 
      (LDPE), polyoxymethylene (POM), and polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS), and organisms 
      ranged from polychaetes and oligochaetes to bivalves, aquatic insects, and 
      gastropods. Regression equations correlating bioaccumulation (C(L)) and passive 
      sampler uptake (C(PS)) were used to assess the strength of observed 
      relationships. Passive sampling based concentrations resulted in log-log 
      predictive relationships, most of which were within one to 2 orders of magnitude 
      of measured bioaccumulation. Mean coefficients of determination (r(2)) for LDPE, 
      PDMS, and POM were 0.68, 0.76, and 0.58, respectively. For the available raw, 
      untransformed data, the mean ratio of C(L) and C(PS) was 10.8 +/- 18.4 (n = 609). 
      Using passive sampling as a surrogate for organism bioaccumulation is viable when 
      biomonitoring organisms are not available. Passive sampling based estimates of 
      bioaccumulation provide useful information for making informed decisions about 
      the bioavailability of HOCs.
