Unweathered and weathered aviation kerosine: Chemical characterization and effects on hatching success of duck eggs

Albers, P.H.; Gay, M.L.

Abstract:

Effects of weathered aviation kerosine from a pipeline rupture in northern Virginia on mallard egg hatchability. Artificially-incubated mallard eggs were exposed by eggshell application to several amounts of weathered and unweathered aviation kerosine on day 6 of incubation. Measured hatching success of eggs and characterized the kerosine according to 14 aliphatic and 9 aromatic compounds.
