The imposex promotion activities of six organotin compounds--tributyltin (TBT), dibutyltin (DBT), monobutyltin (MBT), triphenyltin (TPT), diphenyltin (DPT) and monophenyltin (MPT)--were examined by injection experiments with the rock shell, Thais clavigera (Prosobranchia; Muricidae). TPT and TBT had strong effects on the development of imposex in the rock shell (p<0.001). The other organotin compounds (DBT, MBT, DPT and MPT) had no or less effects on the development of imposex in T. clavigera. The difference between the effects of TPT and TBT was statistically insignificant (p>0.01). The effects of these compounds are estimated, from the relationships between TBT or TPT concentration in tissue and mean penis length of females after injections, to be approximately the same. 相似文献

The muricid Thais distinguenda (ca. 1,300 individuals) was collected from a pristine island in the Andaman Sea and tagged prior to translocation to an area of intense shipping activities. A minimum of 50 tagged individuals were recaptured 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 7, 8 and 12 months after transplantation. The animals were separated into small (< or = 25 mm) and big (>25 mm) specimens based on total shell length and both incidence of imposex and body burden of butyltin (BT) were determined. After 3 months 16.7% of the small size and none of the big size class had developed imposex. After 5 months the incidence of imposex in the big and small size classes increased steadily with time reaching 86.4 and 80%, respectively after 1 year. Time after transplantation was significantly correlated with the incidence of imposex for the big size class (Spearman Rs=1; P=0.008); RPLI (Spearman Rs=1; P=0.008) and VDSI (Spearman Rs=1; P=0.008); and the small size class: incidence of imposex (Spearman Rs=1; P=0.006); RPLI (Spearman Rs=1; P=0.006) and VDSI (Spearman Rs=1: P=0.007). The development of imposex was not significantly related to body size after five months (chi square P<0.001). The body burden of tributyltin was not significantly different between the two size classes (paired t-test ) but the smaller animals had significantly higher concentrations of both dibutyltin (DBT; P<0.005) and monobutyltin (MBT; P<0.001). The use of transplantation experiments in addition to imposex surveys and analysis of body burden of tributyltin (TBT) can enhance the interpretation of the results and understanding of the time scale involved with the development of imposex. 相似文献

In 1997, concentrations of cadmium (Cd), chromium (Cr), copper (Cu), lead (Pb) and nickel (Ni) were analysed in green-lipped mussels (Perna viridis) from three mariculture zones located in the north-east (Kat O), south (Lo Tik Wan) and to the west (Ma Wan) of Hong Kong. Spatial differences in the concentration of metals were found, chromium and copper were higher at Ma Wan and Lo Tik Wan compared to Kat O in the north-east. In contrast, the highest levels of lead (mean = 4.37 microg/g dry wt) were recorded at Kat O. There were no differences in the level of nickel between the study sites. A comparison of the metal concentrations in mussels with the results of a previous study seven years before, in 1990, showed a twofold increase in the mean levels of cadmium for all three sites. However, levels of the other metals in 1997 were lower by 12-32% for chromium, 32-39% for copper and 24-25% for nickel. The greatest reductions were recorded for lead: Kat O (39%), Ma Wan (51%) and Lo Tik Wan (75%). This may be related to the introduction of lead-free petrol in 1991. Despite the apparent reduction in some heavy metal bioaccumulation between 1990 and 1997, from a public health risk perspective, the data suggest a continued need for monitoring of heavy metals in mussels from mariculture zones. 相似文献

Most of the oyster mariculture beds in Taiwan are in areas located along the west of the island. One of these areas is the Charting coast, where green oysters were found in 1986. During this incident, which became internationally notorious, mass mortality occurred in the Charting oyster beds. After this discovery, measures were taken by the authorities to counter pollution which lead to the problem. The effectiveness of these pollution control actions was evaluated in this study. Two water column indicators, particulate and sediment, and oysters were sampled and analyzed for metals (Cu, Zn, Pb, Ni) in Charting and its neighboring areas, Kuen-Shen Lake and Shin-Da Harbor, and the control area/station, Dah-Pen Wan. The current study shows that copper and zinc concentrations in both oysters and particulates significantly decreased in the Charting area, compared with concentrations found during the period of the green oyster incident. Six years after the incident, the copper concentration in oysters had fallen from a high of 4400 μg/g dry weight to an average of 300±69 μg/g dry weight, figures similar to the copper concentration in 1982. The pollution control actions taken after the incident are believed to be the cause of this recovery of the coastal environment. Nevertheless, Charting still produced oysters with the highest copper and zinc concentrations among the areas investigated. Further measures currently being taken by the government, including removing the sediment of some portions of Erhjin Chi, should be able to bring the oyster copper concentrations down to the levels similar to those observed in the neighboring area, (average concentration below 200 μg/g dry weight or all time maximum concentration below 500 μg/g dry weight). 相似文献

Butyltins concentration levels and imposex occurrence in snails from the Sicilian coasts (Italy) 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6
Two sampling campaigns have been carried out along the Sicilian coasts within the frame of a European project (Hic-TBT) financed by the LIFE programme. Snails and sediments have been sampled at 5 stations, characterised by very low (Ustica natural sea reserve), low (Ustica harbour), intermediate (Castellamare and Termini Imerese) and high shipping densities (Palermo). Biological and chemical analyses were carried out in order to evaluate the incidence of imposex occurring in snails, and the concentration levels of organotins in sediment and snail samples. Despite the low organotin concentration levels in sediment and snail samples, the results show that imposex is widespread around Sicily. In four locations almost all female snails were affected by imposex at advanced development stages, even in areas with a fairly low shipping density. Only in the natural sea reserve of Ustica Island imposex was relatively less severe. Finally a logarithmic correlation between TBT and imposex stages was observed. 相似文献

The degree of imposex in dogwhelks, Nucella lapillus (L.), is normally described in terms of a series of vas deferens development stages. The progression of adult female dogwhelks through vas deferens stages 0-5 in response to exposure to tributyltin at 2-128 ng/l has been modelled on the basis of first-order kinetics. Modelling indicated that the half-lives of stages 0, 1 and 2 were from 1-8 weeks and that the half-life of stage 3 was approximately twice as long. The half-life of stage 4 was 90-120 weeks. Half-lives decreased with increasing exposure concentration. The implications of these data for field surveys and transplantation experiments are discussed. Transplanted dogwhelks will not rapidly attain equilibrium with environmental conditions. Experiments will require careful control of exposure period, and preferable supporting chemical data. 相似文献

Comparison of particulate mass, chemical species for urban, suburban and rural areas in central Taiwan, Taichung 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Aerosol samples for PM2.5, PM(2.5-10) and TSP were collected from June to September 1998 and from February to March 1999 in central Taiwan. Ion chromatography was used to analyze the acidic anions: sulfate, nitrate and chloride in the Universal samples. The ratios of fine particle concentrations to coarse particle concentrations displayed that the fine particle concentrations are almost greater than that of coarse particle concentrations in Taichung area. The average concentrations of PM2.5, PM(2.5-10) and TSP in urban sites are higher than in suburban and rural sites at both daytime and night-time. Chloride dominated in the coarse mode in daytime and in fine mode in night-time. Nitrate can be found in both the coarse and fine modes. Sulfate dominated in fine mode in both daytime and night-time. 相似文献

Persistent organic pollutants, POPs (e.g., polychlorinated biphenyls) can seriously and deleteriously affect environmental quality and human health. These organic pollutants are exhibiting high affinities to solid phases and thus, quickly end up in sediments. To better understand the role of carbonaceous materials in the transport and distributions of POPs in terrestrial and near-shore environments, concentrations of PCBs and carbonaceous materials (including total organic carbon, black carbon and total carbohydrates), were determined in surface sediments of the Danshui River and nearby coastal areas, Taiwan. Total concentrations of PCBs in the sediments ranged from non-detectable to 83.9 ngg(-1), dry weight, with the maximum value detected near the discharge point of the marine outfall from the Pali Sewage Treatment Plant. These results suggest that the sewage treatment plant has discharged PCBs in the past and the concentrations are still high due to their persistence; alternatively, PCBs are still being discharged in the estuarine and near-shore environment of the Danshui River. Organic carbon and black carbon concentrations correlated well with those of total PCBs in the sediments, suggesting that both organic carbon and black carbon significantly affect the distribution of trace organic pollutants through either post-depositional adsorption, or by co-transport of similar source materials. The field results demonstrate that black carbon and plays an important role in the general distribution of PCBs, while concentrations of some specific PCBs are affected by both black carbon and organic carbon concentrations. 相似文献

Quantification of organotin compounds and determination of imposex in populations of dogwhelks (Nucella lapillus) from Norway 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Unintentional effects of the antifouling agent tributyltin (TBT) have been discovered in marine gastropods as the induction of male sex characters in females, known as imposex. The occurrence of imposex in dogwhelks (Nucella lapillus) was investigated in 41 populations sampled in 1993-1995 along the Norwegian coast. A method for quantification of organotin species using gas chromatography and atomic emission detection (GC-AED) was developed. Some degree of imposex occurred in almost all populations of dogwhelks studied, except in four from Northern Norway. The concentration of organotin compounds in the gastropods from the unaffected populations was below the detection limit (7 ng Sn/g d.w.). The concentration of TBT in dogwhelks from affected populations was in the range 48-1096 ng Sn/g d.w. A positive relation between the concentration of TBT in dogwhelks and the degree of imposex was found. 相似文献

Dry deposition, ionic species measured and source interpretation during seasonal cycle at offshore areas near Taiwan Strait 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The characterization for water-soluble species of total suspended particulate (TSP), dry deposition flux, and dry deposition velocity (V(d)) were studied at Taichung Harbor (TH) and Wuchi traffic sampling sites at offshore sampling site near Taiwan Strait of central Taiwan during March 2004-January 2005. The average concentrations of TSP and dry deposition flux at the TH sampling site were higher than at the WT sampling site during the sampling period. The samples collected were analyzed by a ion chromatography (DIONEX-100) for the ionic species (Cl(-), SO(4)(2-), NO(3)(-), NH(4)(+), Na(+), Ca(2+), and Mg(2+)) analysis. The dominant ionic species for TSP are SO(4)(2-), NO(3)(-), and NH(4)(+) of the total mass of the inorganic ions at both sampling sites. In addition, the results indicated that the NH(4)(+), NO(3)(-) and SO(4)(2-) showed higher concentrations in winter and lower in summer for both TH and Wuchi sampling sites. Statistical methods such as correlation coefficient and principal component analysis were also used to identify the possible pollutant source. 相似文献

The recovery of populations of dogwhelks suffering from imposex in the Firth of Forth 1987-1997/98 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The impact of tributyltin (TBT) contamination on dogwhelk (Nucella lapillus) populations was assessed at 33 sites in the Firth of Forth, UK, during spring 1997 and summer 1998. The sex ratio of the animals; the ratio of juveniles to adults; the degree of imposex, as determined by the relative penis size index (RPSI); and the total tin concentration in a sample of dogwhelk tissue were used as measurements of TBT impact on dogwhelk populations. These data were compared with data from a similar survey carried out at the same sites in the Firth of Forth in 1987 (Bailey, S.K., Davies, I.M., 1988. Tributyltin contamination in the Firth of Forth (1975-1987). Science of the Total Environment 76, 185-192.) before restrictions were introduced on the use of TBT. The results demonstrate a general recovery in dogwhelk populations from the impact of TBT at the majority of the sites studied, although at six of the sites, the RPSI value remains high enough to suggest breeding problems in the population. It is suggested that large vessels are responsible for localised cases of imposex within the Firth of Forth. 相似文献

Relationships between pesticides and organic carbon fractions in sediments of the Danshui River estuary and adjacent coastal areas of Taiwan 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Hung CC Gong GC Chen HY Hsieh HL Santschi PH Wade TL Sericano JL 《Environmental pollution (Barking, Essex : 1987)》2007,148(2):546-554
In order to understand the fate of pesticides in marine environments, concentrations of pesticides and different carbonaceous fractions were determined for surface sediments in the Danshui River and nearby coastal areas of Taiwan. The major compounds detected were tetrachlorobenzene, HCHs, chlordane, aldrin, DDDs, DDEs and DDTs. Total concentrations of pesticides in the sediments ranged from not detectable to 23 ng g(-1), with the maximum value detected near the discharge point of the marine outfall from the Pali sewage treatment plant. These results confirm that pesticides persist in estuarine and nearby coastal environments of the Danshui River well after their ban. Concentrations of total pesticides significantly correlate with concentrations of total organic carbon and black carbon in these sediments, suggesting that total organic carbon and black carbon regulate the distribution of trace organic pollutants in fluvial and coastal marine sediments. 相似文献

There is a lack of information regarding persistent organic pollutants (POPs) in soil from Slovakia. This paper reports the concentrations of 17 polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins and dibenzofurans (PCDD/Fs), 12 dioxin-like polychlorinated biphenyls (dl-PCBs) and 6 indicator PCBs associated with 32 soil samples collected in 2007 from areas in the vicinity up to several kilometres from four selected industrial PCDD/F sources in Slovakia and one background area.The results show that the total WHO1998-PCDD/F/dl-PCB-TEQ concentrations varied from 0.34 to 18.05 pg g−1 dry weight (dw) and the average total TEQ concentrations in samples collected at the Šala, Košice, Krompachy and Dubová areas were 3.18, 2.64, 7.80, and 3.19 pg g−1 dw respectively. The average of the total WHO1998-TEQ values in three soil samples representing the background Starina area was 0.66 pg g−1 dw. The predominant contaminants among 2,3,7,8-substituted PCDD/Fs, dl-PCB, and indicator PCBs was OCDD, PCB 118, and PCB 153 respectively. The major contributors to the TEQ were 2,3,4,7,8-PeCDF, PCB 126, 1,2,3,7,8-PeCDD, PCB 156 and 1,2,3,4,7,8-HxCDF + 1,2,3,4,7,9-HxCDF in descending order. 相似文献

Perfluorinated compounds in water, sediment, soil and biota from estuarine and coastal areas of Korea 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Soil, sediment, water, and biota collected from the western coast of Korea were analyzed to determine occurrence and sources of perfluorinated compounds (PFCs). PFCs were significantly concentrations of PFCs were measured in some water and biological samples, while concentrations of PFCs in soils and sediments were relatively low. The most widely detected compound was found to be perfluorooctanesulfonate (PFOS), with a maximum concentration in water of 450 ng/L and in fish of 612 ng/g, dw. PFOS concentrations in water and biota were both less than those thought to cause toxicity. However, in both cases concentrations were within a factor of 10 of the toxicity threshold concentration. Concentrations of PFCs were significantly greater downstream than those upstream on the same river, suggesting point sources. Overall, the detection of PFCs at relatively great concentrations in various environmental matrixes from this region of Korea suggests that further studies characterizing PFCs and their potential risk to both humans and wildlife are needed. 相似文献

Trace metals in different species of mollusca, water and sediments from Taiwan coastal area 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Since October 1994, a long-term program of Asia/Pacific Mussel Watch: Taiwan Regional Studies has been carried out. The results indicate that trace metal contents in mollusca varied among 30 different species and the environments (water and sediments) along the Taiwan coast. The orders of bioaccumulation of trace metals in mollusca were: Cu (over 200 microg/g), Thais clavigera > Isognomon legumen > Clibanarius rivescens > Crassostrea gigas; Zn (over 700 microg/g), Moruta granulata > C. gigas > Asiatica cypraea arabica > T. clavigera; Cd (over 5 microg/g), Trochus hanleyanus > Acanthopleura japonica > Nerita albicilla > Patella flexuosa; Pb (over 2 microg/g), P. flexuosa > C. gigas > T. hanleyanus > T. clavigera > C. gigas > Capiyulum mitella; Ni (over 10 microg/g), Meretrix lusoria > Philine sp. > Littoraria scabra > Tridacna squamosa > T. hanleyanus; Cr (over 30 microg/g), Littoraria undulata > T. hanleyanus > N. albicilla > Nerita chamaelor > M. granulata; As (over 20 microg/g), Perna viridis > L. scabra; and Sn (over 5 microg/g), P. viridis > L. undulata> C. mitella> C. gigas. Their seasonal and regional variations as well as their correlation are evaluated and discussed. 相似文献

Environmental contamination of mercury from Hg-mining areas in Wuchuan, northeastern Guizhou, China 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
Total Hg and methyl-Hg were evaluated in mine wastes, soils, water, and vegetations from the Wuchuan Hg-mining areas, Guizhou, China. Mine wastes contain high total Hg concentrations, ranging from 79 to 710 microg g(-1), and methyl-Hg from 0.32 to 3.9 ng g(-1). Total Hg in soil samples range from 0.33 to 320 microg g(-1) and methyl-Hg from 0.69 to 20 ng g(-1). Vegetations present a high average total Hg concentration of 260 ng g(-1), which greatly exceeds the maximum Hg concentration of 20 ng g(-1) recommended by the Chinese National Standard Agency for food sources. The rice samples contain elevated methyl-Hg concentrations, ranging from 4.2 to 18 ng g(-1). Stream water collected from Hg-mining areas is also contaminated, containing Hg as high as 360 ng l(-1), and methyl-Hg reaches up to 5.7 ng l(-1). Data indicate heavy Hg-contaminations and significant conversion of methyl-Hg in the study areas. 相似文献

Distribution of organochlorine pesticides in sediments from Kyeonggi Bay and nearby areas, Korea 总被引:13,自引:0,他引:13
The residues of oragnochlorine pesticides (OCPs) in 62 sediments from Kyeonggi Bay and nearby areas in the west coast of Korea were determined. The concentrations of chlordanes (CHLs) and DDTs showed a distinctive gradient of contamination between inner and outer sites of Incheon North Harbor (INH), whereas hexachlorocyclohexanes (HCHs) were uniformly distributed at most sites studied. The distribution of CHLs and DDTs was strongly correlated with total organic carbon contents in sediments while HCH residue levels were independent. Relationship between contaminant's concentration and environmental factors was analyzed by principal component analysis. Distribution patterns of T-CHLs, T-DDTs, and TOC were similar while those of T-HCHs, mud content, and grain size were similar. The notable contamination by CHLs and DDTs was found in INH where these levels were one or two orders of magnitude higher than other sites. The dominant OCPs in sediments were beta-HCH among HCH compounds, trans-chlordane among CHL compounds, and p,p'-DDD among DDT compounds. The higher concentrations and compositional pattern of OCPs in INH sediments indicate that INH is in the vicinity of the source. 相似文献

Concentrations of 17 toxic 2,3,7,8-chlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins and dibenzofurans (PCDD/Fs) and of 36 polychlorinated biphenyl congeners (PCBs) were analyzed from 167 randomly sampled human milk samples from Southern (77 samples) and Eastern (90) Finland. The level of PCDD/Fs and PCBs in human milk in Southern Finland was about 25% higher than those from Eastern Finland. The level of PCDD/Fs in human milk in Finland was the same as in Sweden, 30–50 % lower than in milk from Central Europe but about 45% higher than values from Norway or Russia. The PCB concentrations in Southern Finland were at the same level as in the Netherlands, and in Eastern Finland at the same level as in Norway. The levels of PCDD/Fs and PCBs decreased with increasing number of children: the third child was exposed to about 70% of the amount of PCDD/Fs and PCBs as compared with the first child, and the eighth to tenth child to about 20%. The congener patterns of PCDD/Fs and PCBs in Finnish human milk were similar to the countries of Central Europe, however, the levels of penta- and heptachlorinated furans were slightly higher than in milk from other countries. 相似文献
