Recently it was discovered that humans and animals from various urban remote global locations contained a novel class of persistent fluorinated contaminants, the most pervasive which perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS). Lower concentrations perfluorooctanoate, perfluorohexane sulfonate, heptadecafluorooctane sulfonamide have also been detected in samples. Although longer perfluoroalkyl carboxylates (PFCAs) are used industry fish following spill aqueous film forming foam, no studies conducted to...
Since the last Arctic Monitoring and Assessment Programme (AMAP) effort to review biological effects of exposure organohalogen compounds (OHCs) in biota, there has been a considerable number new effect studies. Here, we provide an update on state knowledge OHC, also include mercury, and/or associated key marine terrestrial mammal bird species as well fish by reviewing literature published since AMAP assessment 2010. We aimed at updating how single but combined health are or can be mixtures...
Apparent biomagnification factors (BMFs, wet weight basis) for organochlorine compounds in herring gulls (Larus argentatus) Lake Ontario were shown to be related chlorine substitution patterns the case of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), dibenzo-p-dioxins (PCDDs) and dibenzofurans (PCDFs). PCBs accumulated according availability adjacent positions not substituted with chlorine: (a) para-meta unsubstituted (P group), mean BMF 20 ± 6.2; (b) meta-ortho (M 87 36; (c) no (blocked, B 154 39....
