dc.description.abstract | Pesticides and polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) are ubiquitous toxic constituents due to their bioaccumulation and specific physicochemical properties. These compounds accumulate in the biota of all levels and the residues are present in all environmental compartments from all geographical areas. Elevated pollutant concentrations are generally the consequence of effluent discharge and agricultural and industrial runoffs. Although majority of these compounds enter the environment through anthropogenic activitiesa, marine algae and invertebrates and natural processes such as forest fire also contribute their share. The development of global quality assurance criteria and the general awareness of the consumer for quality of the food forced a new approach in the quality aspects of food commodities and seafood is no exception to this. In the light of strigent safety measures with respect to seafood imposed by EU and other developed countries, the understanding on pesticides and PCBs assumes significance. Though present in extremely low concentrations, they definitely pose a chronic health hazard. However, the major problem, associated with these chemicals was their method of detection . The advancement of gas chromatographic and HPLC systems has made it possible to quantify these toxic chemicals for the benefit of the mankind. This paper provides an insight into the general aspects of pesticides and PCBs besides highlighting the health hazards, bioaccumulation in sediments, fish and other aquatic biota and their relevance to the quality assurance system of seafood. | en_US |
