He organized research that found levels of DDT and PCBs were elevated in the blood of local sport fishermen, and his team’s findings were published in the ''Journal of Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry''.〔Gossett, Richard W.; Wikholm, Gary; Ljubenkov, John and Steinman, David. “Human Serum DDT Levels Related To Consumption of Fish from the Coastal Waters of Los Angeles.” Journal of Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry, 1989(8):951-955. http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/etc.5620081014/abstract〕〔Ferrell, David, “Researchers Find Tainted Fish in L.A. Markets”, Los Angeles Times, 2-11-86. http://articles.latimes.com/1986-02-11/local/me-22896_1_commercial-fish.〕 This human blood study corresponded with the beginnings of the Heal the Bay movement to clean up Santa Monica Bay.

In 1986, Steinman testified before the Congressional Subcommittee on Health and the Environment as an expert witness on the levels of chemical contaminants in fish and the blood of fishermen who ate locally caught fish in Southern California.
