Fecha de publicación: | 2016 | Publicación seriada: | Scientific Reports | Resumen: | Organochlorine (OC) pesticides and the more persistent polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) have well-established dose-dependent toxicities to birds, fish and mammals in experimental studies, but the actual impact of OC pollutants on European marine top predators remains unknown. Here we show that several cetacean species have very high mean blubber PCB concentrations likely to cause population declines and suppress population recovery. | URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/10553/20408 | ISSN: | 2045-2322 | DOI: | 10.1038/srep18573 | Fuente: | Scientific Reports [ISSN 2045-2322], v. 6, p. 18573 | Derechos: | by |
