Abstract:
Ecotoxicological and pathological research on Grampus griseus (Cuvier, 1812) (Risso\'s dolphins) is scarce both globally and in the Mediterranean Sea. This species has been classified as \"Vulnerable\" by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) in the Mediterranean Sea. To evaluate the presence of \"persistent organic pollutants\" (POPs), especially organochlorine compounds (OCs), in the animals, chemical analyses were performed on tissues and organs of Risso\'s dolphin stranded along the Italian coasts between 1998 and 2021. Toxic contaminants such as hexachlorobenzene (HCB), polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane and its metabolites (DDTs) were examined in the blubber, liver, muscle, and brain of 20 animals, and data was correlated with sex, age, and stranding locations.
摘要:
Grampusgriseus的生态毒理学和病理学研究(Cuvier,1812)(Risso\的海豚)在全球和地中海都很少。该物种在地中海被国际自然保护联盟(IUCN)归类为“脆弱”。为了评估“持久性有机污染物”(POPs)的存在,特别是有机氯化合物(OC),在动物中,对1998年至2021年间滞留在意大利海岸的Risso\的海豚的组织和器官进行了化学分析。有毒污染物,如六氯苯(HCB),多氯联苯(PCBs),在脂中检查了二氯二苯基三氯乙烷及其代谢产物(DDTs),肝脏,肌肉,和20只动物的大脑,数据与性别相关,年龄,和搁浅的位置。
