Traditionally, microbial surveys investigating the effect of chronic anthropogenic pressure such as polyaromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) contaminations consider just alpha and beta diversity ignore interactions among different taxa forming community. Here, we investigated ecological relationships between three domains life (i.e. Bacteria, Archaea Eukarya) using 454 pyrosequencing data 16S rRNA 18S genes from chronically impacted pristine sediments, along coasts Mediterranean Sea (Gulf Lion,...
The Marine Strategy Framework Directive (2008/56/EC) (MSFD) requires that the European Commission (by 15 July 2010) should lay down criteria and methodological standards to allow consistency in approach evaluating extent which Good Environmental Status (GES) is being achieved. ICES JRC were contracted provide scientific support for meeting this obligation. A total of 10 reports have been prepared relating descriptors GES listed Annex I Directive. Eight by groups independent experts...
An investigation was carried out into the PAH chemical contamination resulting from "Erika" tanker fuel spillage of December 1999 along French coast Bay Biscay. A qualitative and quantitative assessment conducted this in water, suspended particulate matter, sediments, intertidal molluscs. The composition PAHs pre-spill post-spill samples determined used to distinguish "Erika's" as source coastal environment Changes concentrations were also assessed. GC-MS analysis made it possible identify...
Depth profiles of mercury, lead and its stable isotopes, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons were determined in a dated sediment core from the Levantine basin. Sedimentary records show that preindustrial fluxes levels Hg, Pb, PAHs remained generally constant region before 1850. An almost concurrent uniform increase both metals deposition occurring at beginning Industrial Revolution suggests coal combustion as main source these contaminants basin after 1850s. However, none contaminant indicates...
Benthic microorganisms are key players in the recycling of organic matter and recalcitrant compounds such as polyaromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) coastal sediments. Despite their ecological importance, response microbial communities to chronic PAH pollution, one major threats ecosystems, has received very little attention. In largest surveys performed so far on sediments, diversity composition inhabiting both chronically contaminated non-contaminated sediments were investigated using...
Abstract The Fluxes of Agrochemicals into the Marine Environment (FAME) project, which was funded by European Union, studied presence and fate pesticides in major river/estuary systems. As part cooperation within FAME, samples from four rivers were sent to all participants. Each laboratory analyzed with a range techniques, thus creating database that could not have been developed through individual efforts. In present study, compounds are identified important contamination marine environment...
An analytical method consisting in enzymatic deconjugation, solid phase extraction and purification, gas chromatography/mass spectrometry analysis after derivatization was used this study to quantify Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbon (PAH) metabolites the bile of fish. The has been applied a laboratory experiment studying fate pyrene basin containing soles. This allowed identification 1-hydroxypyrene as single metabolite deconjugation. In second time, biomarker exposure case "Erika" oil spill....
