Abstract
The objective of this research was to develop an online bioassessment platform (i.e. Japanese medaka) to evaluate the safety of reclaimed water. Evidence exists that indicates the presence of unregulated organic contaminants (e.g., pharmaceuticals and personal care products) in municipal wastewater effluents, surface waters, groundwater, and drinking water sources are at concentrations that adversely affect endocrine and reproductive systems of fish.

Originally funded as WERF project 01-HHE-4a.
