AB  - Fatty acids (FAs) composition, 24 persistent organic pollutants (POPs), and 16 
      trace elements were examined in small pelagic fish (sardine, anchovy, round 
      sardinella, chub and horse mackerels) caught by a fishing fleet for more than 
      three years in the eastern Mediterranean Sea. Five Unmix source profiles 
      associated with both sources, such as overlapping diet, including low-niche 
      marine organisms and inputs from the surrounding environmental compartments were 
      resolved. Inorganic compounds were notably more abundant in fish tissue than 
      organochlorine xenobiotics. Comparison with the values of toxicological 
      parameters revealed that the examined fish species are safe for human 
      consumption, while the content of FAs emphasized the studied species as a 
      valuable source of nutrients. A significant linear correlation was not observed 
      between the 18 FAs and lipophilic organochlorines. Based on the obtained 
      database, future assessments of the quality of edible fish species and the 
      aquatic environment of the eastern Mediterranean Sea, which is known as an 
      important fishing ground, could be significantly improved.
