AB  - Residues of environmental contaminants in food represent a concern in food safety 
      programs. In this study, the distribution of persistent organic pollutants (POPs) 
      were evaluated in 79 tuna samples from FAO areas 51 (Indian Ocean), 71 (Pacific 
      Ocean), 34 (Atlantic Ocean), and 37 (Mediterranean Sea). 6 polychlorinated 
      biphenyls (PCBs), 16 organochlorines (OCs) and 7 polybrominated biphenyl ethers 
      (PBDEs) were selected as representative compounds according to EFSA POPs 
      monitoring guidelines. An analytical method, based on Accelerated Solvent 
      Extraction (ASE), with an "in-line" clean-up step and GC-MS/MS detection, was 
      developed, validated and applied. PCBs were detected in all FAO areas, with a 
      prevalence of 100% for most of them. In the FAO area 37, only, all PBDEs were 
      detected. Only 5 OCs were detected. The results showed that POPs contamination of 
      tuna reflects FAO area contamination; in particular FAO area 37 was the most 
      polluted. Moreover, tuna muscle was an appropriate matrix for monitoring 
      contamination and for obtaining information about food safety.
