“…Certain groups of population may have higher risks from dietary exposure of PAHs than the general populations [16]. In India there are many studies on the presence of petroleum hydrocarbons in the Goa coastal water [17], north-west coastal water [18,19], fish and prawn from north west coast of India [20], bivalve in east coast of India [21], freshwater and fish [22,23], soil and sediment [24], and marine environment of Mumbai [25]. However, there is no information available concerning dietary intake of PAHs and their risk from fish consumption.…”

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are ubiquitous environmental contaminants which have caused worldwide concerns as toxic pollutant. This study reports the concentrations of 15 PAHs in 5 species of fish samples collected along the harbour line, Mumbai, between 2006 and 2008. Among 5 species of fish investigated, Mandeli, Coilia dussimieri, detected the maximum concentration of PAHs (P < 0.05) followed by Doma, Otolithes ruber. The concentration of total and carcinogenic PAHs ranged from 17.43 to 70.44 ng/g wet wt. and 9.49 to 31.23 ng/g wet wt, respectively, among the species tested. The lower-molecular-weight PAHs were detected at highest levels. Estimated intakes of PAHs by fish consumption for the general population were ranged between 1.77 and 10.70 ng/kg body weight/day. Mandeli contributed to the highest intakes of PAHs. The toxic equivalents (TEQs) of PAHs were calculated using a TEQ proposed in literature, and the intake ranged from 8.39 to 15.78 pg TEQ/kg body weight/d. The estimated excess cancer risk value (2.37 × 10 −7 −1.43 × 10 −6 ) from fish consumption for the general population exceeded the guideline value (1.0 × 10 −6 ) for potential cancer risk.

“…Globally, many studies have been conducted on the distribution of PHC in water columns, sediments, and aquatic organisms (Chouksey et al 2004;Li et al 2010;Venkatachalapathy et al 2010). When directly released into water through spills or leaks, certain PHC fractions evaporate, but some fractions float and may form thin films over the surface of the water (Mohanty et al 2016).…”

“…As a result, many studies have been conducted on the distribution of TPH in the water column, sediments and aquatic organisms (Mohd Tahir et al 1997;Shriadah 2001;Chouksey et al 2004;Li et al 2010;Venkatachalapathy et al 2010). Sources of this contaminant are mainly from anthropogenic activities such as industrial discharge, direct spillage of petroleum products and shipping activities.…”

A Preliminary Study of Total Petrogenic Hydrocarbon Distribution in Setiu Wetland, Southern South China Sea (Malaysia)

The distribution of total petrogenic hydrocarbon was investigated in the subsurface water of Setiu Wetland from July to October 2008. The concentration was quantified by UV-fluorescence spectroscopy and ranged from 4 to 121 μg/L (mean 60 ± 41 μg/L). Higher total petrogenic hydrocarbon concentrations were found in area with high boating activities suggesting that the contribution is likely related to fossil fuel combustion. The present study also revealed that the total petrogenic hydrocarbon values are still lower that those reported in Malaysian coastal waters.
