| Abstract: | Purpose Since 2005, freshwater fish contamination by polychlorobiphenyls (PCBs), polychlorodibenzodioxins, and polychlorodibenzofurans
has been assessed in the Rhone River basin (France). A large database of surface sediment contamination by PCBs is also available,
opening the way to the study of biota-to-sediment accumulation factor (BSAF) distribution throughout this basin. The ultimate
goal of the study was to determine a sediment quality guideline (SQG) corresponding to the regulatory fish consumption limit. |
