A monitoring study on pollutants in commercial and wild tuna fish [Sicily]

2006

English. The aim of this research was to evaluate the levels of DDT, PCBs and some metals in T. thynnus samples living in the Strait of Messina and in commercial samples of tuna fish. The obtained results provide evidence that the observed pollutants ubiquitarian presence in wild samples indicates a moderate contamination level of the Mediterranean Sea. The commercial tuna fish provided to consumer is safe; in fact the contamination level is very low

Le quantità di contaminanti riscontrate nei tonni selvatici fanno ipotizzare un inquinamento di fondo; le esigue quantità rivelate nei campioni in scatola sono estremamente confortanti per il consumatore
