• Crude oil exposure of early life stages of Atlantic haddock suggests threshold levels for developmental toxicity as low as 0.1 μg total polyaromatic hydrocarbon (TPAH)/L 

      Sørhus, Elin; Sørensen, Lisbet; Grøsvik, Bjørn Einar; Le Goff, Jérémie; Incardona, John P.; Linbo, Tiffany; Baldwin, David; Karlsen, Ørjan; Nordtug, Trond; Hansen, Bjørn Henrik; Thorsen, Anders; Donald, Carey; van der Meeren, Terje; Robson, William; Rowland, Steven J.; Rasinger, Josef; Vikebø, Frode Bendiksen; Meier, Sonnich (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)
      Atlantic haddock (Melanogrammus aeglefinus) embryos bind dispersed crude oil droplets to the eggshell and are consequently highly susceptible to toxicity from spilled oil. We established thresholds for developmental toxicity ...
    • Crude oil exposures reveal roles for intracellular calcium cycling in haddock craniofacial and cardiac development 

      Sørhus, Elin; Incardona, John P.; Karlsen, Ørjan; Linbo, Tiffany; Sørensen, Lisbet; Nordtug, Trond; van der Meeren, Terje; Thorsen, Anders; Thorbjørnsen, Maja; Jentoft, Sissel; Edvardsen, Rolf; Meier, Sonnich (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016-08-10)
      Recent studies have shown that crude oil exposure affects cardiac development in fish by disrupting excitation-contraction (EC) coupling. We previously found that eggs of Atlantic haddock (Melanogrammus aeglefinus) bind ...
    • Embryonic crude oil exposure impairs growth and lipid allocation in a keystone Arctic forage fish 

      Laurel, Benjamin J.; Copeman, Louise; Iseri, Paul; Spencer, Mari; Hutchinson, Greg; Nordtug, Trond; Donald, Carey; Meier, Sonnich; Allan, Sarah; Boyd, Daryle; Ylitalo, Gina; Cameron, James; French, Babara; Linbo, Tiffany; Scholz, Nathaniel; Incardona, John P. (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)
      As Arctic ice recedes, future oil spills pose increasing risk to keystone species and the ecosystems they support. We show that Polar cod (Boreogadus saida), an energy-rich forage fish for marine mammals, seabirds, and ...
    • Oil droplet fouling and differential toxicokinetics of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in embryos of Atlantic haddock and cod 

      Sørensen, Lisbet; Sørhus, Elin; Nordtug, Trond; Incardona, John P.; Linbo, Tiffany; Giovanetti, Laura; Karlsen, Ørjan; Meier, Sonnich (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2017)
      The impact of crude oil pollution on early life stages (ELS) of fish, including larvae and embryos, has received considerable attention in recent years. Of the organic components present in crude oil, polycyclic aromatic ...
