Abstract:: ... The oil sands in Northern Alberta are the largest oil sands in the world, providing an important economic resource for the Canadian energy industry. The extraction of petroleum in the oil sands begins with the addition of hot water to the bituminous sediment, generating oil sands process-affected water (OSPW), which is acutely toxic to organisms. Trillions of litres of OSPW are stored on oil sands ...

Exposure to triclosan (TCS) has been reported to reduce photosynthetic pigments, suppress photosynthesis, and inhibit growth in both prokaryotic and eukaryotic algae including Anabaena flos-aquae (a model cyanobacterium). In particular, cyanobacteria are more sensitive to TCS toxicity compared to eukaryotic algae possibly due to the structural similarity to bacteria (target organisms); however, wh ...
