Abstract

The aim of this study was to analyze persistent organic pollutants (POPs) in water, sediment and fish samples from Fierza Lake, Albania. Water, sediment and fish samples were collected in December 2023 and May 2024. The samples were analyzed for polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), organochlorine pesticides (OCPs) and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) by using GC-MS/MS. Total PCB concentrations in water, sediment and fish ranged from < MDL to 4.372 ± 0.957 μg/L, < MDL to 4.217 ± 0.968 μg/kg and < MDL to 5.849 ± 0.953 μg/kg, respectively. PAHs in water, sediment and fish samples ranged from < MDL to 0.195 ± 0.061 μg/L, < MDL to 0.203 ± 0.067 μg/kg and < MDL to 0.227 ± 0.072 μg/kg, respectively. OCP concentrations in water, sediment and fish ranged from < MDL to 3.626 ± 1.058 μg/L, < MDL to 3.032 ± 0.724 μg/kg and < MDL to 3.558 ± 1.108 μg/kg, respectively. The highest detected concentrations of PCBs and specific OCPs surpassed the Environmental quality standards established by the European Union's Water-Framework Directive for surface water and aquatic biota. These exceedances indicate potential ecological risks and pose concerns regarding bioaccumulation and human health through the consumption of contaminated fish.

阿尔巴尼亚Fierza湖水体、沉积物和鱼类中持久性有机污染物的发生与分布:GC-MS/MS季节性评价
本研究的目的是分析阿尔巴尼亚Fierza湖的水、沉积物和鱼类样本中的持久性有机污染物(POPs)。在2023年12月和2024年5月采集了水、沉积物和鱼类样本。采用GC-MS/MS对样品中多氯联苯(PCBs)、有机氯农药(OCPs)和多环芳烃(PAHs)进行分析。水中、沉积物和鱼类中多氯联苯的总浓度从
