Other Biological Applications. 4-Nitro-3-(trifluorometh5i)phenol [88-30-2] (TFM) is stiU employed by the Canadian Bureau of Fisheries and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service as a lampricide for the control of parasitic sea lamprey in the Great Lakes (see Aquaculture).

When it approved the New Animal Drug AppHcation (NADA) of formalin, FDA ruled that use of formalin for fisheries was safe for humans and the environment. They ruled that effluents from fish treatments at 250 mg/L should be diluted 10 times and from egg treatments 75 times if 1,000 —2,000 mg/L were used (10,11). Before registering the compound, FDA also addressed carcinogenicity by stating it was not concerned about human exposure from either water or fish treated with formalin. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) has procedural guidelines that should protect workers from harm fill levels of formalin. Calculations based on treatment levels demonstrated that a fishery worker is exposed to not more than 0.117 mg/L formalin in the air, well below the levels estabUshed by the U.S. Occupational Safety and Health Administration to protect workers.

Two Aroclor 1260 standards and A2) were included in these analyses. One standard was from the Columbia National Fisheries Research Laboratory, and the other from the Patuxent Wildlife Research Center (U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, Laurel, MD.) A difference in the concentration of one constituent of about 30% was responsible for the small difference observed between the two Aroclor 1260 standards (Figure 5.) Use of a quantitative chemometric method to describe compositional residue differences measured in environmental samples may prove helpful in correlating residue profiles and concentrations with observed biological effects, such as decreased survival of young birds.
