Summary: PFASs exposure primarily comes from diet, especially fish consumption. The study found PFASs in popular sea fish like seabass and seabream in Italy. Higher levels of PFBS were detected in lake fish like perch.

Global interlaboratory assessments on PCBs, organochlorine pesticides and brominated flame retardants in various environmental matrices 2017/2019

Jacob de Boer et al.

Summary: This report presents the results of two rounds of interlaboratory assessments on persistent organic pollutants (POPs) as part of the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) global monitoring plan. The assessments focused on the determination of various target compounds in different matrices, and revealed that many laboratories still struggle to achieve acceptable standard deviations. However, acceptable results were obtained for the determination of air extracts and polybrominated diphenylethers in various matrices.

Trace metal elements and organic contaminants are differently related to the growth and body condition of wild European sea bass juveniles

Christophe Lebigre et al.

Summary: This study found that chemical contaminants are related to lower growth and body condition in juvenile fish in the wild, which could have significant consequences if sustained in subsequent ages, leading to a decline in survival and/or reproductive success.

Organic pollutants in marine samples from Tunisian coast: Occurrence and associated human health risks

Amel Jebara et al.

Summary: A total of 140 contaminants belonging to various classes were simultaneously analysed in marine samples from five stations along the coast of Tunisia, with only 28 residues detected above relative LOQ values. Sediment samples showed slight variation in contaminant residues among coastal stations, while aquatic plant leaves exhibited the highest residue accumulation. Fish samples from the central coast of Tunisia did not pose direct hazard to human health as values were lower than protection limits.
