“…The most abundant PAHs in sewage sludge are Pyr, Np, B[g,h,i]pe and Ph. The PAHs concentrations obtained in this study are similar to those found in other sewage sludge (Manoli and Samara, 1996;Lazzari et al, 2000;Pérez et al, 2001).…”

“…The highest concentration were found for pyrene, benzo[g,h,I]perylene, naphthalene Manoli and Samara (1996) and Miége et al (2003) found pyrene as the most abundant PAH in sludge. Phenanthrene was the most abundant PAH in Moreda et al (1998) and Pérez et al (2001) studies, while Lazzari et al (2000) found fluoranthene in the highest concentration, followed by pyrene and phenanthrene. Cai et al (2007) found phenanthrene, anthracene and/or fluoranthene the most abundant PAHs.…”

“…This is a well-established test extensively described in the literature [17,18,19] and similar in principle to the better-known Microtox test. Toxic substances will cause changes in cell structures and/or metabolic pathways of marine V. fischeri, which are rapidly reflected in a decrease of bioluminescence.…”

“…Este último fenômeno parece estar relacionado com a maior presença de HAP nos sedimentos 14 , que são normalmente mais abundantes neste local e atribuídos à presença de navios destinados às atividades de pesca, de vazamentos acidentais durante o abastecimento e da contínua circulação destes navios. Por isso, a toxicidade dos HAP explica-se induzindo uma redução dos valores da bioluminescência 15 , pois tem tendência a se acumular em forma estável no seston, nos sedimentos e nos bivalves [16][17][18][19] . Os HAP, na mesma amostra, devem ser colocados em relação à presença de outros contaminantes com os quais podem se comportar de maneira sinérgica ou antagônica 20 .…”
