Differential Bioaccumulation of Non-ortho-Substituted and Other PCB Congeners in Coastal Arctic Invertebrates and Fish

The composition of 47 ortho- and seven non-ortho-substituted PCBs in sediment, water, invertebrates, and fish collected from Cambridge Bay, Northwest Territories Canada, is presented. Four-horn and short-horn sculpins exhibited selective bioaccumulation of the recalcitrant congeners.
