Selected contaminants found in oil sands wastewaters, and judged to be candidate tainting compounds, were spiked in walleye flesh and subjected to screening odour and taste detection by a trained sensory panel. Twelve compounds were screened and 8 were pursued for determination of detection thresholds based upon 3 separate sessions with a minimum of 9 panelists. Taint detection threshold values ranging from 0.09 mg/kg for benzothiophene to 12.2 mg/kg for 2,6-dimethylnaphthalene were established. These values will assist in determining the significance of analytically determined concentrations of these compounds in fish flesh.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">8-9</style></issue><custom2><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Athabasca River </style></custom2><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/65760156</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">OSEMB</style></custom4></record></records></xml>
