- Abstract
- This study investigated the occurrence of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in water, suspended
particulate matter (SPM), bed sediment and common eels (Anguilla anguilla) in the urban stretch of the
River Tiber (Italy). The selected PAHs, fluoranthene, benzo(b)fluoranthene, benzo(k)fluoranthene, benzo(
a)pyrene, benzo(g,h,i)perylene, indeno(1,2,3-cd)pyrene, belong to the EC priority list of dangerous
substances. SPM was found to be the most polluted compartment, with values ranging from 1663.1 to
15472.9 ng g?1 (R6PAHs), followed by sediment samples, from 157.8 to 271.6 ng g?1 and by aqueous
samples, from 23.9 to 72.0 ng L?1. The distribution coefficient (Kd) showed a good correlation with particle
organic carbon (OC) content, while Koc values experimentally measured for sediment/SPM deviated
from those predicted by Kow, implying that for very hydrophobic compounds, Kow alone may not be an
appropriate descriptor of all the thermodynamic forces involved in their sorption to aquatic particles.
Some selected PAH ratios indicated that PAHs in the River Tiber come mainly from pyrolitic sources
and vehicular traffic. Concentrations of individual PAHs in muscles of common eels varied from 0.8 to
7.0 ng g?1 wet wt. and the calculated toxicity equivalent concentration (TEQ, 1.8 ng g?1 wet wt.) of total
PAHs fell below the recommended screening value (SV) in US EPA guidelines, suggesting no concern for
human consumption. (literal)
