AB  - Babitonga Bay is a large estuary, which has been under pressure from 
      anthropogenic activities coexisting with a natural area of Atlantic rainforest 
      and mangrove systems. The concentration of persistent organic pollutants (POPs), 
      such as polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) and organochlorine pesticides (OCPs) was 
      determined to evaluate the contamination status and the determine possible 
      pollution sources in the estuary. The  summation operatorDDT (sum of DDT, DDE and DDD 
      concentrations) was the predominant OCP group, with concentrations ranging from 
      <DL (below detection limit) to 122ng g(-1). The exceptionally high concentration 
      of p,p'-DDT (80%) found near Sao Francisco harbour exceeded SQG limits indicating 
      highly toxic conditions in the area that may be attributed to a recent 
      contamination from some local input. In contrast, other sites in the estuary 
      presented higher concentration of the metabolite p,p'-DDE (34%). The results 
      suggest strongly anthropogenic impact in specific sites of this estuary, which 
      need further investigation.
