ABSTRACT
The Chemical Response to Oil Spills Ecological Effects Research Forum created a standardized protocol for comparing the in vivo toxicity of physically dispersed oil to chemically dispersed oil to support science-based decision making on the use of dispersants in the early 2000s. Since then, the protocol has been frequently modified to incorporate advances in technology; enable the study of unconventional and heavier oils; and provide data for use in a more diverse manner to cover the growing needs of the oil spill science community. Unfortunately, for many of these lab-based oil toxicity studies consideration was not given to the influence of modifications to the protocol on media chemistry, resulting toxicity and limitations for the use of resulting data in other contexts (e.g., risk assessments, models). To address these issues, a working group of international oil spill experts from academia, industry, government, and private organizations was convened under the Multi-Partner Research Initiative of Canada's Oceans Protection Plan to review publications using the CROSERF protocol since its inception to support their goal of coming to consensus on the key elements required within a "modernized CROSERF protocol".
