“…The grade of bioaccumulation can be expressed as a factor of bioaccumulation representing the ratio of a substance concentration in a living organism and its concentration in the medium or food. In some fish, molluscs and insect species this ratio may reach a figure of several dozen or even hundred thousands (10).…”

Organochlorine Pesticides in Freshwater Fish from the Zagreb AreaThe aim of this study was to determine the level of organochlorine pesticides in freshwater fish from the Zagreb area, Croatia. The study included 215 freshwater fish samples from three sites: the Sava River, Lake Jarun, and five fishponds from the Zagreb surroundings. Organochlorine pesticides DDT and derivates, HCH, HCB, lindane, aldrin, dieldrin, endrin, heptachlor with epoxide, and methoxychlor were determined using the GC-ECD method. The determined amounts of organochlorine pesticides were within allowed concentration limits in all analysed fish samples. Median values ranged from below the detection limit of 0.01 μg kg-1 for dieldrin and metoxychlor to 2.00 μg kg-1 for DDT in the Cyprinidae fish family from the Sava River, Zagreb sampling site (group 1).This study has confirmed pesticide persistence in the overall ecosystem in our country despite the ban of some thirty years ago, like in many other parts of the world.

“…Extraction and cleanup over an aluminum oxide column were by the method of Greve and Grevenstuk (1975). A Packard-Becker Model 419 gas chromatograph with 63Ni electron-capture detector was used, and the stationary phases were a OV-17/OV-210 and a DEGS/H3PO4 mixture (Kan et al, 1978).…”

“…Accumulation ratios, not depending on the PCB source, generally declined with increasing dietary concentrations (Table V), reflecting a pattern similar to that seen with chickens fed hexachlorobenzene (HCB) in excess of 1 mg/kg (Hansen et al, 1979). Below 1 mg/kg, equilibrium is reached rapidly in broilers and accumulation of chlorinated hydrocarbons is generally proportional to dietary concentration (de Vos et al, 1972;Kan et al, 1978).…”
