AB  - Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) and organochlorine pesticides (OCPs) were 
      quantified in archive samples of dorsal white muscle of the wild Bluefin tuna 
      (BFT) (n = 9) collected in the central Adriatic. PCBs were the predominant 
      organochlorine (OC) compounds (60.8-69.4% of the total OC load) found. The 
      contribution of HCB and SigmaHCHs was significantly lower, ranging from <LOD (alpha- and 
      beta-HCH) to 1.5% (gamma-HCH). p,p'-DDE was the predominant OCP compound (60-89% of the 
      SigmaOCPs). PCB and DDT levels were comparable to the values previously found for 
      tuna from the Mediterranean Sea, known as one of the areas most polluted by PCBs.
