| Abstract: | The age dependence of Zn, Cu, Pb, Cd, Hg, CH31bHg, DDT, DDD, DDE, HCH, HCB and the PCBs have been studied in Baltic herring of 1 to 6 years of age. Lead, cadmium, mercury and the organochlorine concentrations increase significantly with age. In the case of the DDTs and the PCBs, the variations can be attribued almost totally to the combined effect of age and variations in the lipid percentage. |
