Contamination levels and profiles of 7 polychlorinated-p-dioxins, 10 polychlorinated furans (PCDD/Fs) and 12 dioxin-like polychlorinated biphenyls (dl-PCBs) were investigated in juvenile European flounder (Platichthys flesus) captured in different nursery areas in the northeastern Atlantic coast across its geographical distribution range. The toxic equivalent concentrations (WHO-TEQfish) were also determined in order to evaluate which P. flesus population was more exposed to dioxin-like toxicity. Juveniles caught in the Sørfjord (Norway) showed the lowest WHO-TEQfish concentration (0.052 pg WHO-TEQfish g(-1)wet weight) whereas the highest value was observed in fish from the Wadden Sea (The Netherlands; 0.291 pg WHO-TEQfish g(-1)ww), mainly due to the greater contribution of 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin, the most toxic congener. Nonetheless, when comparing the results with existent tissue residue-based toxicity benchmarks, no adverse effects resulting from PCDD/Fs and dl-PCBs are expected to occur in flounder from the studied systems.
对在东北大西洋沿岸不同育苗区捕获的欧洲幼鲆(Platichthys flesus)进行了研究,分析了7种多氯代对二恶英、10种多氯代呋喃(PCDD/Fs)和12种二恶英类多氯联苯(dl-PCBs)的污染水平和分布情况,其分布范围覆盖了该物种的地理分布区域。还测定了毒性当量浓度(WHO-TEQfish),以评估哪个欧洲幼鲆种群受二恶英类毒性的影响更大。在挪威的叙尔峡湾捕获的幼鱼显示出最低的WHO-TEQfish浓度(0.052 pg WHO-TEQfish g(-1)湿重),而在荷兰瓦登海捕获的鱼中观察到最高值(0.291 pg WHO-TEQfish g(-1)湿重),这主要是由于毒性最强的同系物2,3,7,8-四氯二苯并对二恶英的贡献更大。尽管如此,将结果与现有的基于组织残留的毒性基准进行比较时,预计研究系统中的欧洲幼鲆不会因PCDD/Fs和dl-PCBs而产生不利影响。
