Subsequently, the fish were sacrificed, filleted and bile drawn from the gall bladder. Sensory analysis, performed by 10 pre-screened panelists, revealed that each of the four wastewater streams tainted the exposed fish to a detectable degree. Chemical analyses of the fish fillet, wastewater and fish bile revealed the presence of alkylated benzenes and phenols. The total level of phenols detected in the fish tissue was well above reported odour threshold levels. The additional presence of organic sulphur compounds identified in the wastewater suggests that they may also have contributed to the detected level of fish taint.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2</style></issue><custom2><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Athabasca Oil Sands Region (AOSR)</style></custom2><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">http://wst.iwaponline.com/content/25/2/27</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">OSEMB</style></custom4></record></records></xml>
