AB  - The global contamination with persistent organic pollutants (POPs), or compounds 
      with similar characteristics, is well known. Still there are data gaps for POP 
      concentrations from many areas in the world. The aim of the present study is to 
      assess several legacies POPs and also hexabromocyclododecane (HBCDD) and 
      methoxylated polybrominated diphenyl ethers (MeO-PBDEs) in shellfish from three 
      locations in the Yellow Sea and East China Sea. The sources of the contaminants 
      are discussed. Pooled samples were treated by liquid-liquid extraction and acid 
      and column cleanup prior to analysis by gas chromatogram equipped with electron 
      capture detector (GC-ECD) and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). The 
      by far most abundant environmental contaminant originates from 
      dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane (DDT), independent of species analyzed or 
      sampling site. The results indicate ongoing or at least recent discharges of DDT. 
      The second highest concentrations were reported for HBCDD (21-40 ng/g fat) in the 
      shellfish, independent of sampling sites. The two natural products, 6-MeO-BDE-47 
      and 2'-MeO-BDE-68, were also present in the shellfish (1.3-22 and 1-14 ng/g fat, 
      respectively). The polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB) congener CB-153 (0.8-6.5 ng/g 
      fat), hexachlorobenzene (HCB) (1.1-3.6 ng/g fat), and beta-hexachlorocyclohexane 
      (beta-HCH) (2.3-4.9 ng/g fat) were all higher than the concentrations of other HCH 
      isomers, beta-endosulfan, PBDE congeners, and mirex. Apart from the DDTs and HBCDDs, 
      it is evident that the pollution of shellfish was similar to, or lower than, the 
      contamination of shellfish in other parts of the world.
