| Abstract | Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) were measured in six compartments of the sea bass (Dicentrarchus labrax) food web from the Seine estuary. Similar PCB patterns were observed in all samples. The main components possess the −245, 234, −2345 chlorine substitution Contamination increases with the trophic level. The highest concentrations were found in sea bass amounting 300 ng g$^{−1}$ (d.w.) in the oldest individuals. A six-compartment steady-state food web model is proposed for the food web leading to the sea bass. Several exposure pathways are considered in the description of the accumulation by animals: the ingestion of particulate contaminants associated with either phytoplankton and detritus, and the respiratory uptake of truly dissolved contaminants in the overlaying, water. The application of this model indicates that feeding is the principal route of contamination, especially for PCBs which have more than four chlorine atoms and that feeding preference, phytoplankton lipid fraction, and organic carbon, content of detritus are parameters which mostly determine the bioaccumulation in this food web. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
