“…Activity levels of NADPH reductase were within the range of those observed in laboratory (Okay et al, 2000) and field studies (Porte et al, 2000). Induction of these reductases in relation to PAHs has been reported in some studies (Michel et al, 1993;D'Adamo et al, 1997), but not in others (Solé et al, 1996;Porte et al, 2001b).…”

“…Two factors could partly explain these differences: (1) the use of a protein membrane solubiliser in Bodin et al (2004) and/or (2) a worse fitness condition in mussels exposed to laboratory conditions. Long (up to 30 day) acclimation periods have been recommended in mussels (D'Adamo et al, 1997) to avoid the effect of the adaptation factor.…”

“…Earlier studies showed that occurrence of elimination rate of xenobiotic in mussel species tends to be lower than that of fish species (D'Adamo et al, 1997;Zhao et al, 2014). With regard to shrimp species, relatively low detoxification rate was performed on the bioaccumulation study of PCBs on Palaemonetes Dwiyitno et al /Squalen Bull.…”

“…In general, accumulation of PAHs in green mussel was similar to that of sediment samples containing low molecular weight (LMW) and HMWPAHs, indicating ingestion of particulate matter from contaminated waters was predominantly accumulation route into green mussel. In contrast, fish and shrimp predominantly accumulated LMW-PAHs and only partly accumulate pyrene and fluoranthene of HMW supported their bi oaccumulation rate was predominantly via aquatic food chain (D'Adamo et al, 1997;Zhao et al, 2014). Incomplete combustion is believed as the main source of PAHs compounds in the environment.…”

Identification of persistent and emerging organic contaminants in green mussels (Perna viridis), various fishes, banana shrimp (Penaeus merguiensis) and sediment samples from Jakarta Bay has been employed. A non-target GC-MS screening approach has identified more than 60 individual organic compounds from the whole fractions either non-polar, semi-polar or acidic-polar compounds. The substances comprised as persistent organic pollutants (POPs) including DDT (dichlorodiphenyl trichloroethane) and its metabolites as well as high molecular weight polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (HMW-PAHs). Noteworthy, a number of emerging contaminants detected in the present study have never been reported previously either from the same location or from Asian waters. They include some priority contaminants of non-persistence halogens and emission of technical products, such as di-isopropylnaphthalenes (DIPNs) dichlorobenzene (DCB), dichlorodiphenyl chloroethene (DDMU) and phenylmethoxynaphthalene (PMN). In general, the concentration order of the priority organic contaminants was sediment > green mussel > fishes > shrimp. Further analysis based on the spatial distribution, individual concentrations and bioavailability suggested that some contaminants are applicable as molecular marker for the assessment of anthropogenic emission in Jakarta Bay, i.e. DIPNs, linear alkylbenzenes (LABs), phenylmethoxynaphthalene (PMN), PAHs, dichlorobenzene, DDT and its metabolites.

“…The bioaccumulation of PAHs by marine organisms has been extensively studied (van der Oost et al 1991, Hellou et al 1995, Meador et al 1995, Kane & McElroy 1996, D'Adamo et al 1997, Klosterhaus et al 2002. However, the majority of laboratory and field studies focused on the uptake from water and the relationship between the bioconcentration factor (BCF, the ratio of contaminant concentration in an organism to the dissolved concentration) and the octanol-water partition coefficient (K ow ).…”

We examined the toxicokinetics of benzo(a)pyrene (BaP) and the trophic transfer in a marine planktonic food chain comprising phytoplankton, copepods, and fish. Kinetic parameters including the uptake rate from the dissolved phase, the assimilation efficiency (AE) from the ingested food, and the elimination rate were quantified. Influences of food quality and quantity and different routes of exposure (aqueous and food) on the biokinetics were also examined. The uptake rate constants were 390 to 1090 ml mg -1 h -1 in different species of phytoplankton, 1.2 ml mg -1 h -1 in the copepods, and 0.157 ml mg -1 h -1 in the fish, respectively. The assimilation efficiencies were 2 to 24% in the copepods and 32 to 51% in the fish ingesting different prey types. Increasing food concentration significantly reduced the AEs, whereas the AEs varied little among the different food diets tested at the same biomass. The elimination rate constants by the copepods were 0.8 to 1.7 d -1, and comparable following uptake from the aqueous phase and the dietary phase. A kinetic modeling calculation suggests that more BaP accumulated in the copepods originates from the dietary intake than the aqueous intake. For fish, both trophic transfer and aqueous uptake are important in BaP bioaccumulation. Feeding rates contribute to the differences in the relative proportion of accumulated BaP in the fish.
