Study aim: "To validate the standardization of a laboratory protocol for measuring bioaccumulation, laboratory-derived tissue residues and biota–sediment accumulation factors (BSAFs) were compared with historical field data from nine sites in Ontario, Canada. As a result of temporal discontinuity between the field and the laboratory studies, a priori considerations, such as changes in site conditions or concentrations of contaminants in sediment, were necessary to assess whether to compare absolute or relative measures of bioaccumulation."
