AB  - A wide variety of persistent organic pollutants (POPs) in the surface marine 
      sediments and seafood from four geographic areas of the East China Sea were 
      investigated. The POP concentrations were analyzed and their possible 
      ecotoxicological risks assessed. The total concentrations of 
      hexachlorocyclohexanes (HCHs), dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethanes (DDTs), 
      polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), and polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) in 
      the sediments were found to be ND-22.40, ND-5.10, 32.10-171.70, and 0.60-63.00 
      ng/g dry weight (dw), respectively. Low-chlorinated biphenyl congeners and HCHs 
      were predominantly found at the Hangzhou Bay and Yangtze River areas. The 
      sediment ecotoxicological risk was assessed, indicating the toxic effect of PCBs 
      and DDTs on benthic organisms. In marine organisms of economic importance, the 
      concentration of total PAHs, PCBs, and organochlorine pesticides (OCPs) ranged 
      from 43.20 to 291.20, 2.60 to 96.20, and 12.70 to 235.20 mug/kg dw, respectively. 
      The bioaccumulation in marine organisms did not pose a significant health risk to 
      consumers. As indicated by the POP residues in both marine sediments and 
      organisms, POPs were persistent over time, posing a long-term risk to the local 
      ecosystem and human health via the food chain.
