Acute Toxicity of 4-hydroxydiphenylamine (4-HDPA) and N-(1,3-dimethylbutyl)-N'-phenyl-p-phenylenediamine-quinone (6PPDQ), transformation products of 6PPD, to early instars of the mayfly, <i>Neocloeon triangulifer</i>
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Our analysis of water samples collected during a rain event from two urban rivers in the Greater Toronto area, Ontario, Canada, indicated that selected transformation products (TPs) of the tire antioxidant, N-(1,3-dimethylbutyl)-N'-phenyl-p-phenylenediamine (6PPD), including 6PPD-quinone (6PPDQ) and 4-hydroxydiphenylamine (4-HDPA), were present at concentrations >1 µg/L. In acute (96-hr) toxicity tests with aquatic larvae of the mayfly Neocloeon triangulifer, 6PPDQ did not cause mortalities at the highest test concentration, which was just below the limit of solubility. In toxicity tests with 4-HDPA, a calculated 96-hr median lethal concentration of 339 µg/L is above environmentally relevant concentrations. However, in toxicity tests with 6PPD, there was evidence that the degradation of this tire wear compound produced unknown TPs that caused mortalities in exposed mayfly larvae. Additional work could identify other TPs of 6PPD that could be a hazard to aquatic invertebrates exposed to tire wear compounds transported into surface waters from transportation corridors.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
