Abstract
⺠Sediment-associated unresolved complex mixtures (UCM) at environmentally relevant concentrations caused sub-lethal and lethal effects to benthic invertebrates. ⺠Toxicity of UCM was species-dependent. ⺠A low concentration of UCM increased the bioavailability of sediment-associated polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons. ⺠High concentrations of UCM in sediment may have formed non-aqueous phase liquids and reduced PAH bioavailability.
