Abstract: | Introduction In Egypt, the picture of threats to humans and the environment from the exposure to organic pollutants is still incomplete.
Thus the objectives of this study were to assess the occurrence and distribution of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), organochlorine
pesticides, and chlorpyrifos in sediments and mussels of Abu Qir Bay and their risks for environment and human health. |
