| retrospective monitoring of organotin compounds in freshwater fish from 1988 to 2003: results from the german environmental specimen bank. | in archived samples from the german environmental specimen bank (esb) organotin compounds including tributyltin (tbt) and triphenyltin (tpt) as well as their potential degradation products were quantified. muscles of bream (abramis brama) sampled in the period 1993-2003 from the rivers rhine, elbe, saale, mulde, saar, and from lake belau (period 1988-2003) were analyzed by gas chromatography/atomic emission detection-coupling after extraction and derivatization. tbt was detected in nearly all sa ... | 2007 | 17005234 |
| mercury levels and trends (1993-2009) in bream (abramis brama l.) and zebra mussels (dreissena polymorpha) from german surface waters. | mercury concentrations have been analysed in bream (abramis brama l.) and zebra mussels (dreissena polymorpha) collected at 17 freshwater sites in germany from 1993-2009 and 1994-2009, respectively, within the german environmental specimen programme. mercury concentrations in bream ranged from 21 to 881 ng g(-1) wet weight with lowest concentrations found at the reference site lake belau and highest in fish from the river elbe and its tributaries. statistical analysis revealed site-specific diff ... | 2012 | 22071369 |
| current levels and trends of selected eu water framework directive priority substances in freshwater fish from the german environmental specimen bank. | under the german environmental specimen bank programme bream (abramis brama) were sampled in six german rivers and analysed for the priority hazardous substances dicofol, hexabromocyclododecane (hbcdd), hexachlorobenzene (hcb), hexachlorobutadiene (hcbd), heptachlor + heptachlor epoxide (hc + hce), polybrominated diphenylethers (pbdes), polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins and -furans and dioxin-like polychlorinated biphenyls (pcdd/fs + dl-pcbs), and perfluorooctane sulfonic acid (pfos). the aim wa ... | 2016 | 27389550 |
| retrospective monitoring of alkylphenols and alkylphenol monoethoxylates in aquatic biota from 1985 to 2001: results from the german environmental specimen bank. | breams (abramis brama) and zebra mussels (dreissena polymorpha) from freshwater, and common mussels (mytilus edulis) from marine ecosystems, archived in the german environmental specimen bankwere analyzed for the presence of 4-nonylphenol (np), 4-tert-octylphenol (op), nonylphenol monoethoxylate (np1eo), and octylphenol monoethoxylate (op1eo). the samples were collected in the german rivers elbe, rhine, and saar, and in lake belau between 1992 and 2001, as well as in the north sea and baltic sea ... | 2004 | 15074671 |
| is there a linkage between bioaccumulation and the effects of alkylphenols on male breams (abramis brama)? | there was some evidence from a previous study that estrogenic disruptors, like alkylphenols, could effect fish in the small river saar of southwestern germany. concentrations of 4np and 4np1eo found in breams (abramis brama) in the saar river were much higher than those found in other sampling sites of the german environmental specimen bank, including those from sampling sites in the rivers elbe, rhine, mulde, and saale and in lake belau. we studied the relationship between accumulation and effe ... | 2005 | 15721884 |
