To extrapolate the effects of chloroform exposure in humans, we used the chloroform mouse and the human PBPK models (Corley et al., 1990) to estimate hepatotoxic exposures in humans based on the results of the animal experiments presented here.
Grebes are water-dwelling diving birds with thick, waterproof plumage. They eat fish, aquatic insects, and other small water creatures, and they also eat their own feathers. Grebes are known for their ornate courtship displays, which are among the most elaborate displays of any bird group.
Loons and grebes, which nest on lakes but winter at sea, are usually categorized as water birds, not seabirds. Although there are a number of sea ducks in the family Anatidae that are truly marine in the winter, by convention they are usually excluded from the seabird grouping.
