Zusammenfassung:The occurrence and spatial distribution of persistent organic pollutants (POPs) and personal care products (PCPs) were investigated in surface sediments of Todos os Santos Bay. Samples were Soxhlet-extracted and analyzed by gas chromatography coupled with tandem mass spectrometry. Quantification limits (QL) ranged from 0.0025 ng g−1 for POPs to 0.25 ng g−1 for PCPs. Of the POPs studied, only PCBs and DDTs were detectable, with concentrations ranging from
