Bioaccumulation of pentachlorophenol in rainbow trout and zebra fish muscles

IRG/WP 3372

J C Palla, M Dion

The bioaccumulation of pentachlorophenol in Rainbow Trout and Zebra fish has been evaluated by partition coefficient n-octanol/water determination at ph 7 and measured in vivo according to the OECD guidelines and the European directive 79/831/EEC. The obtained results confirm the low bioaccumulation potential of this product in aquatic organims.
