Abstract: | The concentrations of BHCs, DDTs and PCBs have been determined in samples of Engraulis encrasicholus, Mytilus galloprovincialis, Nephrops norvegicus, Mullus barbatus, Euthymnus alletteratus and Sarda sarda, collected in different stations of the Ligurian Sea. Increasing levels of contamination were found in the order: Nephrops, Mytilus and Engraulis, Mullus and Euthymnus, Sarda.A comparison with the data available in the literature relevant to Mytilus samples collected in Genoa in 1973–1974 showed a notable decrease in the concentration of chlorinated residues. |
