Occurrence and distribution of organochlorine pesticides in the water of Lake Mariut, a brackish coastal Egyptian lake suffering from pollution, and their accumulation in the common fish Tilapia were studied. The major pesticides detected in the lake water were lindane, p, p'-DDE, o, p'-DDT, and p, p'-DDT. These compounds, except o, p'-DDT, were detected in the fish samples in exceedingly higher concentrations compared with those found in the lake water.
