RESEARCH ON THE CONTAMINATION OF MUSSELS (MYTILUS GALLOPROVINCIALIS) FROM THERMAIKOS GULF WITH N-PARAFFINS
Abstract
IN THE PRESENT WORK THE CONTAMINATION WITH N-PARAFFINS OF MUSSELS (MYT. GALLOPROVINCIALIS) FROM THERMAIKOS GULF WAS STUDIED. A TOTAL OF 129 SAMPLES WERE ANALYZED WHILE THE IDENTIFICATION AND QUANTIFICATION OF HYDROCARBONS WAS PERFORMED WITH CHROMATOGRAPHIC TECHNIQUES. THE SAMPLES EXAMINED WERE FOUND TO BE CONTAMINATED BY N-PARAFFINS IN THE RANGE NC12ANE TO NC38ANE AND AT CONCENTRATIONS VARIED BETWEEN 2 TO 70.1 NG/G (NET WEIGHT). N-PARAFFINS DETECTED IN THE MOST SAMPLES WERE N- C15ANE, NC24ANE, NC26ANE AND NC28ANE WHILE N-PARAFFINS WITH THE HIGHEST CONCENTRATIONS WERE N-C17ANE, NC21ANE, NC26ANE AND NC28ANE. THE LEVELSOF N-PARAFFINS FOUND IN THE MUSSELS OF THE AGRICULTURAL AREA OF THE GULF WERETHE SAME WITH THOSE FOUND IN THE MUSSELS ON THE INDUSTRIAL AREA (A=0,05). N-PARAFFINS CONCENTRATIONS WERE FOUND TO BE INCREASED DURING THE WINTER TIME IN THE MUSSELS OF THE INDUSTRIAL AREA (A=0,05). IT WAS DETECTED THE PRESENCE OF ANUNRESOLVED PEAK ENVELOPE IN THE GAS CHROMATOGRAMS OF ...
