Popis: | The relationships between some organochlorines and metals in the water and in the zebra mussel of the river Seine have been studied in the Parisian area. The bioconcentration of PCBs by the mussel (Kb = 17 × 103) was about 10 fold higher than for other organochlorines. The accumulation and the release response of the mussel to alterations of the water organochlorine levels occurred within a period smaller than 7 days. The correlation between the water and the mussel levels is highly significant for γHCH and PCBs (r=0.94, p |
