TI  - Organic compounds temporal trends at some invertebrate species from the 
      Balearics, Western Mediterranean.
PG  - 1650-9
AB  - Concentrations of persistent organic pollutants (POPs) such as hexachlorobenzene 
      (HCB), dichlore diphenyl trichloretane (DDT), polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), 
      and gamma-hexachlorocyclohexane (gamma-HCH or lindane) were determined in tissue 
      of marine benthic invertebrates such as Mytilus galloprovincialis, Chamelea 
      gallina, Venus verrucosa, Lithophaga lithophaga and Paracentrotus lividus. 
      Species were selected due to their habitat, trophic level, feeding behaviour and 
      their consumption. Invertebrate species were systematically sampled from December 
      1996 to December 2005 from several sites along the Balearic Islands. The highest 
      concentrations of PCBs (785ng/g lipid) were found in M. galloprovincialis while 
      the lowest concentrations were found in the sea-urchin P. lividus (193ng/g 
      lipid). Among the 7 PCB quantified congeners the higher values are mainly 
      obtained for CB138 and CB153. All bivalves presented higher PCBs contents than 
      the sea-urchin P. lividus are possibly linked with the bioaccumulation process of 
      POPs throughout the food web and to differential detoxifying mechanisms. The 
      concentration of SigmaDDT exceeds that of HCB and gamma-HCH at all species and 
      sampling stations. DDT concentrations ranged from 0.4ng/g ww at the bivalve C. 
      gallina in 2002, to values of 15.8ng/g ww at the bivalve L. lithophaga in 1998. 
      The values obtained for the organic compounds (HCH, HCB, PCBs, DDT) depend upon 
      the place and year of sampling and are compared to values found by other authors 
      for the mussel M. galloprovincialis in other Mediterranean areas. gamma-HCH and 
      HCB were found in lower concentrations than the other POPs.
