Abstract |
Three sediment samples taken from the Buffalo River and two soil samples taken near its bank have been analyzed for 2-propanol-extractable, basic organic compounds by using GC/MS. Eleven aromatic amines related to the commercial production of malachite green and crystal violet were identified in both the sediment and soil samples. Apparently a dye manufacturing plant used this part of the river bank as a dump, and several of its waste chemicals were leached into the river. It is possible that the compounds reported here are, at least partially, responsible for tumors observed in fish taken from this river. (Copyright (c) 1980 American Chemical Society.) |
