Abstract
AbstractThe presence of volatile, nonpolar bromine‐containing compounds in marine organisms is demonstrated. These compounds represent, especially in tissue containing a high fat content, ca. 0.1–1.0% of the total amount of bromo organic compounds present in marine oils. In tissue with a low fat content, a higher concentration of bromo organic compounds is found. It is concluded that these compounds are probably synthesized in one or more stages in the marine food chain. These compounds may follow and disturb the analyses when isolating and determining chlorinated hydrocarbons originating from industrial and other sources of pollution.
