AB  - We investigated the transfer of persistent organic pollutants (POPs) from 
      unspiked bottom sediment to a benthic marine fish, marbled sole (Pleuronectes 
      yokohamae), via non-food-chain pathways, i.e., via sediment particles and water 
      column. One-year-old sole were held for 28days in an exposure tank with bottom 
      sediment or in a control tank. o,p'-DDE and tri- to penta-chlorobiphenyls were 
      transferred from the sediment to the fish via non-food-chain pathways, as 
      demonstrated by concentrations in the exposed fish at 2.5-30 times the control 
      levels. A model analysis based on first-order kinetic equations indicated that 
      the overall rate constant of transfer of these compounds from sediment to fish 
      was generally lower than that from food (median of ratio, 0.48). It also 
      suggested that relatively high concentrations of the other POPs in the food and 
      the longer times necessary for them to reach a steady state masked any transfer 
      of them from the sediment.
